Verification and Technical Assurance Programme, Ukraine (VERITAS-UKR)
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
Since the full-scale Russian invasion, Ukraine has experienced heavy fighting, air-raids and strikes on people, communities and infrastructure. FCDO has scaled-up its ODA programming to address the devastating consequences. BEK’s programming is often in hard-to-reach areas, where the needs are greatest and security threats are heightened. BEK staff cannot travel to directly to verify the delivery and assure the quality of programmes. VERITAS-UKR addresses this challenge by providing vital verification, assurance and evidence to improve the quality and integrity of BEK’s ODA programming. It has four objectives: Third Party Monitoring (TPM), generating portfolio-evidence on topics of cross-cutting interest, transparency (supporting monitoring initiatives in civil society) and a programme-funded staff-post for monitoring and results.
