The International Rescue Committee responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover and gain control of their future.

EVALUATION PURPOSE

The main objective of this evaluation is to provide IRC and US Department of State with an assessment of the project’s 3.5 years activities in terms of their relevance and coherence in the target areas, impact and effectiveness of project design, efficiency of the implementation, sustainability of the project deliverables beyond project’s life span and coherence with other interventions in Sudan. The year two evaluation conducted in 2024 assessed activities across multiple sectors including Health, Nutrition, WASH, Protection and MPCA. This final evaluation focuses exclusively on activities: Health, Nutrition, WASH, Protection, MPCA and Shelter and Settlements in expanded target locations encompassing new regions and districts. The evaluation should provide information that is evidence-based, credible and useful, enabling the incorporation of lessons learned into the future decision-making processes of IRC and the donor.

Specifically, the evaluation will:

1. Assess the extent to which the project met planned outcomes for the selected component and the relevance and efficiency of the selected methodologies to achieve these outcomes for the project activities.

2. Highlight lessons learnt, best practices and recommendations for improvements to feed back into current and future IRC’s programming in the same sectorial area and using similar approaches to meeting their objectives.
