The overall objective of the program of which this market is a part was "improvement of the governance of natural resources and the management of protected areas with a view to contributing to a green economy characterized by endogenous, sustainable and inclusive economic development, as well as 'to the fight against climate change".

The specific objective was "a more effective preservation of diversity and fragile ecosystems" in relation to associated ecosystem services.

This project had the following three specific objectives:

• Establish a rapid assessment and disgnosis of the Ecofaune+ (NE component) and Chinko (SE component) projects; contextualize this diagnosis at the national and international level.
• Identify and formulate an action to take over from Ecofaune+ in the comming years and at the latest until April 2022 (deadline for the implementation of Ecofac VI).
• Specify the action document for the Chinko grant no later than April 2022 (deadline for implementation of Ecofac VI).
• Propose the most relevant indicator to be included in the logical framework of the previous two actions, and define the targets to be included in the logical framework model proposed by the ECOFAC 6 financing agreement.

The objective of the evaluation was to provide an overall independent assessment of the performance of the African Peace Facility (APF) for the period 2014-2016 and, on this basis, draw key lessons and recommendations in order to improve current and future support through that instrument.

The evaluation served policy decision-making and project management purposes. The main users of this evaluation were DG DEVCO, the EEAS, EU delegations in the APF beneficiary regions; the AU and the REC/RMs. The evaluation also generated results of interest to governmental and civil society partners and the EU member states.

Evaluators followed a two-step approach:

• First, the evaluation provided an assessment of what has been achieved through the APF for the period 2014-2016 with regards to Peace Support Operations and capacity-building, taking into account the conclusions and recommendations of th11-0248-052e 2013 APF evaluation.
• Second and based on the findings of the first step, the evaluation offered concrete and actionable follow-up as well as new recommendations to address the remaining and new challenges faced by the APF.

DG DEVCO has launched a large-scale Business Transformation Programme, currently called the ‘OpSys programme’ with the strategic objectives of increasing productivity, improving quality, simplifying and harmonising processes and increasing transparency of results. The OpSys programme encompasses 6 projects to gradually upgrade operational processes and the tools available to staff from DGs DEVCO and NEARand the Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI). From end users to top managers, the upgraded processes and tools will allow staff to efficiently manage their portfolio of projects/programmes throughout the cycle of operations. OpSys will enable the staff to easily access information on projects/programmes, prepare, validate and monitor them, tender and contract relevant assistance and manage results following a ‘no re-encoding’ principle. The system will also be open to external partners and provide essential data for reporting and communication tools allowing greater transparency. Project 1 (of 6) is already being implemented. It focuses on Operational Entities and Results Management and is designed to achieve 6 key outputs which represent a major change in the working methods of the concerned DGs and FPI. This change began a long time ago and includes many efforts to introduce result based management, some of which we are well aware of (e.g. results reporting within the EU Results Framework, considerable effort to improve results indicators and generally the management of programmes and projects using these indicators). In order to take place smoothly, and in a sustainable manner, this change must be managed which means that all the stakeholders must “buy into” the process, and be trained in its implementation. This change management project, accompanying Project 1, will consist of appropriate communication and training around the approach to results management focused on the Operational Managers

The specific objectives of this assignment are:

• To raise awareness on EU positions and know how in Climate Change and low carbon technologies by engaging Indian stakeholders such as NGOs, think tanks, businesses and Government officials.
• To gather intelligence on policies and needs in view of facilitating European business and policylevel involvement in India's Climate Change agenda
• To initiate cooperative action between the EU and India, in support of mitigation, adaptation and transparency targets of the Paris Agreement.

The main objectives of this final evaluation were to provide the relevant services of the European Union and interested stakeholders with:

• An overall independent assessment of the past performance of the China-EU Access to Justice project, paying particularly attention to its results against its objectives;
• Key lessons and recommendations in order to improve current and future actions in this and related sectors.

In particular this evaluation served to assess the results of the action as well as the reasons for success or failure for achieving the expected results.

The specific aspects to be evaluated were:

a) The results and possible impact achieved through project support;

b) The experience of linking state and non-state legal service providers and impact on strengthening of the role of civil society in social justice issues in China;

c) Areas where learning opportunities and transfer of knowledge on legal aid modalities and practice between Europe and China were pursued and analysis of relevance to the broader EU-China strategic relationship.

The global objective of the assignment was to provide technical assistance and capacity building support to Nyein (Shalom) Foundation for its peace process and peacebuilding projects and its support to EAOs.

The specific objectives were to provide project management support and capacity building to Nyein (Shalom) Foundation, in particularly senior management and the Peace Process Support Program. Through embedded needs-driven support to this key national organisation, this assignment has supported the growth and sustainability of Nyein (Shalom) Foundation as well as supporting continuity in support to EAOs during a critical period in the peace process and political dialogue.

The overall objective of the project was to develop realistic options for the introduction of a diploma qualification in the primary education sub-sector and to demonstrate their systemic, financial and institutional implications.

Particip reviewed the various options for a diploma as outlined below:

• Diploma qualification for teachers;
• Diploma qualification for other primary education sub-sector personnel;
• Diploma qualifications in areas of specialisation.

Each review considered different ways in which the category of diploma could be introduced. The project determined the feasibility of sustaining each option in terms of the likely, available financing as well as the set-up costs. The capacity to deliver a diploma programme was analysed as well as implications for Teacher Training Colleges and their associated Teaching Practice Schools. The institutional links necessary to validate a diploma was also explored and elaborated.

The evaluation focused on the "learning" and "accountability" dimensions with a focus on the former. The first required particular attention in order to draw useful lessons for other interventions or for new policies, strategies and programmes.

The review used the "Performance" evaluation grid to carry out the analyses relating to the traditional evaluation criteria which are "effectiveness", "impact" and "sustainability".

The specific evaluation questions used in this review focus on:

• The improvement of communal governance and its contribution to the sustainable improvement food security as well as the options for ensuring the sustainability of the structures put in place;
• Capacity building of local development to
• Lessons and practices learned that could be used as a basis for future interventions, particularly in sectors benefiting from the transfer of skills and resources to local authorities;
• The sustainability risks of investments made under PAMED II and how to miate the
• The conditions for success in terms of utility and sustainability of infrastructure management in public-private partnerships (PPP).

The team followed the methodology proposed in the TOR. Thus, the evaluation questions identified by the TOR guided the data collection in four communes. At least one commune was chosen in each of the four intervention departments, all representing the different levels of performance defined on the basis of the criteria established by the programme. In consultation with the UGAT team and other informants, the mission team selected the communes of Douméga (with the highest score of 91%), Fabidji (86%), Kiéché (74%) and Sokorbé (64%).
