NRC has been in Ethiopia since 2011, providing Shelter, Education, WASH and Food Security assistance to refugees in 14 camps located in 4 areas of the country. Shelter comprises the biggest component of the all assistance provided. The evaluation sought to examine all shelter projects implemented by NRC between 2011 and 2014. However, emerging quality issues had the team consider feedback emanating from ongoing programmes in 2015.

The initial purpose of the evaluation was to identify important areas of learning and document successes that can be replicated, as well as to highlight shortcomings to avoid in the shelter programme. However, findings throughout data collection shifted focus of the outcome towards key areas in need of improvement, quality improvements and assurance.
