This report presents the independent evaluation of the USAID funded Building Resilient Communities in Fiji (BRCF) project. The evaluation was conducted between September-October 2019 by a three-member evaluation team.

The purpose of this evaluation was to identify to what degree the intended outcomes of the BRCF project were achieved, and what have been the key lessons learned. The evaluation used a theory of change approach to guide the focus of inquiry, data collection, analysis and reporting. The evaluation used mixed methods and multiple analysis approaches to collect, analyze, triangulate data, and interpret findings. The Evaluation Team (ET) undertook: focus group discussions in target communities and semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders. These methods were complemented by document review, and field observation.
