Haiti Earthquake and Cholera Appeal - Final Evaluation

The Haiti Earthquake and Cholera Emergency appeal (MDRHT018) was implemented by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) in collaboration with the Haitian Red Cross Society (HRCS) following the devastating earthquake on 14 August 2021, and the cholera outbreak on 2 October 2022. The Emergency appeal aimed to provide comprehensive support across several thematic areas, including shelter; livelihoods; health; Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH); Community Engagement and Accountability (CEA); and Protection, Gender, and Inclusion (PGI).

The final evaluation was conducted to assess the effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, coverage, coherence, coordination, and sustainability of the operation, providing valuable lessons for future interventions. To achieve this goal, it employed a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data from an extensive literature review and qualitative data from Key Informant Interviews (KII), Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and direct observations. Data triangulation was used to ensure the reliability and validity of findings. The evaluation process included three phases: planning, data collection, data analysis, and reporting. Key activities included developing data collection tools, conducting KII and FGDs with community members and stakeholders, performing direct observations, and analyzing the collected data to prepare a comprehensive final report.
