PO 8549 Independent Monitoring and Evaluation of DFID's African Union Support Programme
Project disclaimer
Description
The African Union Support Programme (2018-2021) builds on a previous phase of programming which ran from July 2014 to December 2017. As part of its goal to develop deeper partnerships with key African institutions, DFID is providing the African Union Commission (AUC) with £5 million over a three year period to deliver on shared UK-Africa priorities in the areas of trade, migration, electoral assistance and conflict prevention and response. Ecorys was commissioned by DFID to undertake an evaluation of the AUSP in August 2019. The evaluation will assess programming from July 2018 to April 2021, addressing four core objectives: 1. Assess the capability and capacity of the AUC to consistently follow through on its policy commitments across the programme’s three priority areas 2. Set realistic success metrics that the evaluation can measure progress against 3. Provide a performance evaluation and qualitative assessment of the benefits of interventions under the programme 4. Undertake bespoke action research, with a primary focus on identifying gender-related elements under interventions and assessing the impact of the programme on these.
