Tearfund Disaster Management Team's (Tearfund DMT) Food Security programme, Sinoe County, 2007-2009

The following report addresses the findings of an external impact assessment of Tearfund

Disaster Management Team’s (Tearfund DMT) Food Security programme funded by ECHO
in Sinoe County over the period January 2007 till June 2009.
The evaluation was conducted by an independent consultant. Findings and observations were
shared and discussed with a second independent consultant who focused on evaluating the
remaining components of Tearfund’s integrated programme in Sinoe County. The evaluation
was conducted well before the end of the funding period (in June 2009) and before Tearfund’s
phasing out and handing over to its national partner, the Association of Evangelicals of
Liberia , AEL, which was to take place by the end of 2008.
The regular progress reports provide a good and realistic insight in the level to which
activities have been implemented as per the plan, and have contributed to the outputs. This
report touches upon such issues but does not intend to provide a comprehensive overview as
its focus is on impact; the level to which the project outputs have contributed to the purpose
and overall goal of the project.
