Integrated Community Based Risk Reduction (ICBRR) programme was Cruz Vermelha de Timor-Leste (Timor-Leste Red Cross/CVTL)’s programme to tackle issues on: Disaster and Risk Reduction (DRR); Climate Change Adaptation (CCA); Livelihood; Health and Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH); and Youth. This programme was funded by The Government of Republic of Korea through The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and The Republic of Korea National Red Cross (KNRC). ICBRR was a two-year programme throughout January 2022 to December 2023. This programme covered four suco (villages) in two municipalities (Ainaro and Manufahi).
In the end of programme implementation, an internal evaluation was conducted to assess the achievements of the ICBRR programme and draw lessons learned from its implementation, providing valuable input to improve future programming. The evaluation’s scope was focused on the CVTL headquarter and branch, communities in the targeted areas, and local governments. The targeted areas are Manelobas and Aituto Village in Ainaro Municipality and Tutuluro and Caicasa Village in Manufahi Municipality. The evaluation addressed: 1) Relevance and appropriateness, 2) Effectiveness, 3) Impact, 4) Coherence, and 5) Sustainability and connectedness.
