REACH - Renewed Efforts Against Child Hunger and undernutrition – is an inter-agency partnership that was established by Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), World Food Programme (WFP) and World Health Organization (WHO) in 2008. It was later joined by the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). REACH seeks to strengthen national capacity for nutrition governance through the provision of tailored support to government-led nutrition governance efforts including analytical tools and resource materials and the deployment of neutral facilitators.

The UNN/REACH Secretariat commissioned this end of term evaluation of REACH in Burkina Faso, Haiti, Mali, Myanmar and Senegal as per its agreement with Global Affairs Canada (GAC), the donor funding REACH in these countries. It covers the period May 2014 up to August 2017. The evaluation serves the dual purpose of accountability and learning.
