The general purpose of this assignment is to provide the relevant EU services, EU and non-EU donors of the trust fund, African partner countries and the wider public with an independent final evaluation of the EUTF for Africa. The EUTF for Africa is financing interventions in several countries in Africa, crossed by the major migration routes, including countries in the Sahel and Lake Chad regions, the Horn of Africa and North Africa. The final evaluation covers the period since the EUTF for Africa inception in November 2015 until December 2024. Thematically, the evauation focuses on the EUTF's objective of addressing the root causes of irregulat migration and forced displacement.

The specific objectives of the evaluation are:

• to independently assess/examine/analyse the EUTF for Africa and its interventions;
• to assess overall whether and how the EUTF for Africa as an instrument of EU external assistance (and the financed interventions) contributed to address the root causes of irregular migration and forced displacement, taking into account the specific characteristics of the EUTF for Africa, compared to other funding instruments;
• to identify key lessons and to provide recommendations to inform future EU strategic approaches and actions in addressing irregular migration and forced displacement, thereby filling the evaluation and knowledge gaps, that this evaluation aims to address;
• finally, the evaluation would assess whether EUTF for Africa interventions have effectively addressed cross-cutting issues, such as human rights, gender and youth in the context of irregular migration and forced displacement.

WFP Pakistan is implementing a school meals project in two districts (Malir and Keamari) of the Karachi Division in Sindh Province from 2026 to 2030. The project is funded with USD 40 million from the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) McGovernDole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program. In addition to school meal provision, the project includes complementary and system-strengthening support in four areas: (i) literacy programming, (ii) school health, nutrition and WASH, (iii) meal delivery infrastructure, and (iv) government capacity strengthening. It expects to reach approximately 100,000 (pre-)primary students in more than 600 schools.

WFP Pakistan has commissioned a baseline study (2026), midterm evaluation (2028), and endline evaluation (2030) of the project. The midterm and endline evaluations would be implemented by the same contractor consortium based on satisfactory performance in the baseline. The evaluation series will cover the period from December 2025 to December 2030. Covering the evaluation criteria of relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, impact and sustainability, it aims to assess the performance of the project and related activities. It will serve both accountability and learning to measure and understand the effectiveness of the project in improving enrolment, attendance, literacy, health and nutrition of primary school students in government schools. It is also expected to enable WFP to strengthen implementation, document lessons learned and develop key operational procedures and guidelines along with the Sindh Education and Literacy Department to expand school meals across the province.

The evaluation will adopt an integrated mixed methods design that combines a quasi-experimental (difference-in differences) impact framework with theory-based qualitative enquiry. The quantitative component will estimate changes in outcomes and performance indicators over time and, at endline, it will identify program effects using a comparison group. The proposed sample comprises a survey with 300 schools at baseline and endline, with 12 students per school (survey of 3,600 households and students per wave). The qualitative component will contribute to the assessment of all six evaluation criteria (through document review, key informant interviews at all schools, and focus group discussions in schools).

This assignment consists of an evaluation of the European Union’s Budget Support in Montenegro, focusing on three strategic areas: Public Administration Reform (PAR), Integrated Border Management (IBM), and the response to COVID-19. It covers four sector budget support programmes implemented between 2016 and 2026, including the PAR programme, two IBM programmes, and COVID-19 crisis response support. The evaluation will assess the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, EU added value and sustainability of these interventions, with particular attention to their contribution to Montenegro’s EU accession agenda. It will examine how EU financial support, policy dialogue and complementary technical assistance have supported reforms, strengthened national systems, and contributed to governance, security, economic recovery and social resilience.

The work will combine document review, interviews, field visits, quantitative analysis and stakeholder consultation, structured around reconstructed intervention logics and evaluation questions. The evaluation will provide evidence-based findings, conclusions and recommendations for future EU support in Montenegro.

Methodologically, the assignment will follow the OECD-DAC approach to budget support evaluation, structured around the levels of the intervention logic: inputs, direct outputs, induced outputs, outcomes and contextual impact indicators. The evaluation will not aim to prove direct causality for higher-level results, but will assess the plausibility and consistency of EU contributions in relation to observed changes. Evidence will be gathered through a combination of documentary review, administrative and statistical data, interviews with EU, government, donor and civil society stakeholders, focus groups and field visits.

The Final Evaluation of the Budget Support Programme “Support to Justice Sector Reforms in Armenia, Phase I” provides an independent assessment of the programme’s effectiveness, efficiency, and impact in supporting Armenia’s policies on good governance, rule of law, justice, and anti-corruption. It examines the extent to which EU budget support has helped strengthen institutional capacities, improve policy frameworks, and enhance public budget spending in support of the Government of Armenia’s reform agenda. The evaluation also considers how this support has enabled progress on Armenia’s commitments under the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement (CEPA).It reviews the sustainability of supported policies and analyses the complementarity and synergies between EU budget support, other aid modalities, and interventions by development partners. A further objective is to identify constraints in government policies, institutional structures, and administrative arrangements that may reduce the effectiveness of budget support in promoting public spending reforms and targeted policy actions. The findings are intended to inform future EU cooperation in Armenia and strengthen the design and delivery of budget support operations in the justice sector.The general objectives of this evaluation are:

• to assess the contribution of EU budget support and complementary assistance to capacity building;
• to assess policy dialogue, coordination mechanisms, and policy monitoring processes;
• to answer the evaluation questions.

The Evaluation Manager is responsible for the management and the coordination of all activities, which mainly include:

• methodological steering of the evaluation

Results Oriented Monitoring (ROM) reviews aim to assist the European Commission’s services and EU Delegations in monitoring of and reporting on EU financed development and cooperation projects and programmes in third countries through independent reviews of the progress of their implementation and the achievement of project results.

ROM services to be provided through this contract are clustered in three components:

** Component 1: ROM Reviews. ROM contractors will assess the performance of EU-funded interventionson the basis of the following OECD DAC evaluation criteria: relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability.

ROM reviews will cover:

-A sample of EU funded interventions during the inception phase of implementation. The ROM review will support the OM in confirming or updating intervention logic and logframe matrix, in reviewing the monitoring system of the IP, in assessing risks and mitigation measures and fine tune the calendar of activities with a view to improve the performance of the intervention across the OECD DAC criteria.

- ROM reviews will assist the OM in adressing the main implementation problems.

-Other interventions for which Commission services request a ROM review on demand (interventions which could not be visited by EU OMs or for which there is a lack of sector expertise in the EU Delegation/operational unit in HQ).

- Blending operations, focused on asessing the value added of the EU contribution and on the performance of blending interventions in terms of socio-economic development.

** Component 2: Quality assurance and support at design stage for a sample of interventions. Provide technical support to EC services in the formulation of intervention logics and related logical frameworks matrices (logframes) and monitoring and reporting arrangements for a sample of interventions.

**Component 3: Results report (at corporate and intervention level). The Contractor will provide services to encode and quality control results data for a set of interventions subject to results reporting. TOM contractor will ensure quality control of data included in the intervention's logframes. Such quality controls will include, amongs others: verifying that the logframe is correctly encoded and up-to-date , enssuring that the latest values related to logframe indicators are available, and supporting the aggregation of intervention-level results into the EU Results Framework or other frameworks.
