Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe (DKH) and the German Federal Foreign Office (GFFO) have funded a project with the support of two implementation partners- Nabolok and Action for Social Development (ASD). The project was implemented in the Rohingya and Host communities in Cox’s Bazar for 3 years. The project aimed to provide protection and lifesaving humanitarian assistance in various sectors. DEVCOM was assigned to provide support to Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe to evaluate the project. As part of it, DEVCOM conducted the following activities:
- Collected information with a particular focus on the project log frame and comparability to available baseline data to critically assess the progress of the project indicators.
- Assessed the changes in knowledge, attitude, practice, and behavior of the targeted groups and other stakeholders both, in Rohingya and host communities by the project interventions.
- Collected case stories to substantiate the findings and analysis and to document the project’s good practices to provide sector-wise “lessons learned” for future projects.
- Suggested recommendations for designing a new similar project following the findings from this evaluation, lessons learned of the project, and good practices of the implemented interventions derived from assessing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the current project strategies and interventions.
