The independent Evaluation of the Lebanon World Food Programme (WFP) Country Strategic Plan (CSP) 2023–2027 aims to generate evidence and learning on WFP’s performance in Lebanon, while ensuring accountability to WFP stakeholders and affected populations.
The evaluation covers all WFP activities (including cross-cutting results i.e. adherence to humanitarian principles, gender and inclusion, protection and accountability to affected populations) from mid-2020. This also includes activities prior to the Country Strategic Plan (2023-2027) to better assess the results trends, contextual evolution and the extent to which the strategic shifts envisaged with the introduction of the CSP have taken place.
CSP key sectors and activities include:
- Emergency preparedness
- School feeding
- Livelihoods activities
- Social protection
- Institutional capacity strengthening
The evaluation employs a mixed-method approach that triangulates qualitative and quantitative data from a variety of sources. For this purpose, the evaluation team is conducting interviews with different stakeholders including WFP staff at HQ, regional and country level, WFP cooperating partners, donors, UN agencies, government entities as well as focus group discussions with the beneficiaries.
