The purpose of the review is to obtain an independent evaluation of the performance of the SNAP project against the targets outlined in the project's logical framwork analysis, using evaluation criteria of relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, connectedness, and coherence. The methodology for the review consisted of the following activities:

  • Review of SNAP project proposal, reports and other relevant background material.
  • Interviews with Assessment Capacities Project (ACAPS) Project Management Team in Geneva, MapAction management, key donors, United Nations (UN) agencies and Non-­governmental Organisations (NGOs) headquarters.
  • A 12-­day fieldtrip which included interviews with SNAP staff, donors, UN agencies and NGOs in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.
  • An online survey of users of SNAP outputs (see annex 3 for the survey results).

The review was commissioned by the ACAPS Board and was managed by a steering committee (SC) composed of representatives from the ACAPS board, donor and partner representatives.
