Philippines, Disaster Preparedness and Response/Climate Change Adaptation Activities: An Evaluation

The decentralized evaluation has been commissioned by the WFP Philippines Country Office and covers the Development’s (USAID’s) Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) supported 'Final Evaluation of Disaster Preparedness and Response/Climate Change Adaptation Activities under the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance Fund in the Philippines'.

It was intended for both accountability and learning and focuses on assessing: i) the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability of the Disaster Preparedness and Response/Climate Change Adaptation Programme); ii) its results; and iii) the factors explaining the results.
The evaluations assessed a range of capacity building and mitigation interventions in the field of disaster risk reduction and management, provided to the Government of the Philippines at national and local levels, both delivered directly from WFP and through nongovernmental and academic partners.

The evaluation, which makes a number of recommendations for the future, was managed by KonTerra Group, with fieldwork taking place in October 2017
