The evaluation was designed according to the following international criteria: relevance, coherence, effectiveness, impact, efficiency and sustainability. However, given its thematic focus, the main aim was to assess the relevance of the interventions with regard to Gender.
Overarching evaluation questions included:
1) In what is the operation relevant to the gender issues? 2) What is the level of achievement of the results expected from the operation in terms of gender equality and empowerment of women? 3) Why and how did the intervention produce the observed results? 4) Are the effects and impacts on gender issues sustainable beyond the lifetime of the intervention?
