In 2013, the Disasters and Emergencies Preparedness Programme (DEPP) partnered with the Start Network to implement 13 of 14 projects. One of these is the Talent Development Project (TDP). The TDP is funded with £5,985,087 and brings together four pre-existing learning and development (L&D) courses with a capacity-building coaching component and a review of the Core Humanitarian Competency Framework (CHCF). The aim of the TDP is to build the local capacity of 1,165 national aid workers in three regions that are frequently affected by natural disasters and emergencies.
The objective of the Mid-Term Review is to provide an assessment of the status of the TDP’s implementation, which could provide insight before a final evaluation and inform planning for any future iterations of the TDP.
