The Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has been carrying out evaluations of its work in individual countries since 2005. This Sri Lanka country evaluation, conducted in 2012 and covering the period 2006 to 2012, is the 11th of its type.

Designed to be forward-looking, the evaluation sought to answer three over-arching questions:

  • How relevant, efficient, effective and sustainable has FAO‘s work been in Sri Lanka since 2006?
  • What difference has FAO made?
  • What can be learned that would help to improve FAO‘s future work in Sri Lanka and elsewhere?
