The Humanitarian Innovation Fund External Evaluation

This is an independent evaluation of the Humanitarian Innovation Fund (HIF), from the Fund’s launch in 2011 until December 2016. Its object is the HIF’s global performance, process, and strategy. Its purpose is to provide accountability to stakeholders by delivering an independent assessment of the HIF’s effectiveness; support learning about how the HIF’s processes support or hinder effectiveness; and contribute to strategy development. It was conducted from December 2016 to June 2017 in three stages: (i) inception; (ii) data collection and analysis phase; and (iii) synthesis and reporting.
