The decentralised evaluation was commissioned by the WFP Jordan Country Office and covers WFP’s General Food Assistance through unconditional cash transfers to Syrian Refugees in Jordan between January 2015 and June 2018. It was carried out in 2018.

The evaluation was commissioned to assess WFP’s assistance in refugee camp and host community settings across the country, with the dual objectives of learning and accountability. The evaluation will inform the strategic and operational direction of the programme and the CO more broadly as one of the key documents for the formulation of WFP Jordan’s Country Strategic Plan 2020-2022. The evaluation focused on assessing the relevance, appropriateness, coherence, efficiency, effectiveness, sustainability and impact of the programme, with a particular focus on transfer modalities, coverage of accountability to affected populations (AAP) and gender equality and the empowerment of women (GEEW).
