The objective of the FWC is to provide, via individual assignments defined and contracted through Specific Contracts, expertise which can be mobilised at short notice. The quality of the services, which may make use of expertise either internal or external to the Framework Contractor, must be guaranteed by the Framework Contractor who will provide the appropriate internal technical skills and resources.

The FWC has no overall contractual amount or maximum budget. The implementation duration (not exceeding 36 months) and the contractual amount (not exceeding € 999,999) are fixed for each individual assignment.

The various Specific Contracts are governed by the EU External Aid Programmes under which they are financed. These EU External Aid Programmes include the European Development Fund (EDF), as well as the Programmes financed from the EU General Budget.

The sectors covered by this Lot are:

• Human rights, democracy and rule of law
• Local Authorities & Decentralisation
• Migration
• Conflict prevention and resolution, Peace and Security

The evaluation will take stock of all that has been achieved with the primary objective of enabling lessons learned and recommendations to inform:

• The conditions under which the budget support has an effect (or not) and the possible intensity and nature (positive or negative) of this effect on the Environment and Sustainable Development sector.
• The design and implementation of future budget support operations for the Environment and Sustainable Development sector.
• The improvements that will be implemented by the European Union (or other budget support provider(s)) to maximize the impact of budget support in the sector.
• Constraints in government policies, institutional structures and administrative arrangements in Colombia that may hinder the effectiveness of the budget support in financing specific actions and reforms and public policies.

Trafficking and the worst forms of child labour are a phenomenon that affects the entire West African sub-region, including Côte d'Ivoire, Benin, Togo, Mali and Nigeria. Burkina Faso is recognized as a supplier, transit and receiving country for children. In addition, the Burkinabe authorities estimate that half of Burkinabe children work in households, in agriculture - particularly on cotton fields and fruit and vegetable plantations - and in gold mines. The proportion of children aged between 8 and 18 living apart from their parents due to their work is estimated at about 5%. Reliable data on child labour and child trafficking are not available as there are methodological challenges in collecting data on this sensitive subject. With the development of a national child protection strategy for the period 2018-2027, the country aimed to build on the achievements while addressing the weaknesses of the protection system identified in the 2008-2017 COSP mid-term evaluation and confirmed by the mapping report in 2014. This strategy also aimed to operationalize the system approach desired by all, in the design, implementation and evaluation of policies, programmes and actions for children.

The "Children and Youth Fund" project was part of the national strategic framework for the protection and promotion of children's rights and the fight against trafficking and the worst forms of child labour. The objectives and areas of intervention of the Project were integrated into the priority actions of the National Action Plans.

The overall objective of the project was to contribute to the consolidation of human capital and the promotion of social protection.

The specific objective of the project was to strengthen the legal, institutional, socio-economic and cultural environment conducive to the promotion and protection of the rights of the child.

The results expected were as follows:

• Social infrastructure for children and young people, especially vulnerable children and youth, is set up and equipped;
• premises for communal social services are built and furnished;
• School canteens are supported with food for students' meals;
• and scholarships for studies and vocational training are awarded to vulnerable children and young people

The overall objective to which this action contributed was to achieve increased visibility of the EU and the EU assistance provided to the Republic of Moldova, while providing targeted information on tangible results for the Moldovan citizens. The focus of this contract were the EU values and assistance provided to the country, taking as reference the framework of the Association Agreement (AA) and the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA). In addition to this, increased focus was placed on visibility of the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP), the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument (Global Europe), the Eastern Partnership (EaP), EU regional policies and the status of the Republic of Moldova as EU candidate country.

This objective was implemented via three key areas:

1. Europe Day events

2. High-level communication events, cultural events and ad-hoc events

3. Communication tools of EU Delegation

Last but not least, a special focus was placed on the role and importance of European values and culture, thus providing a pivotal role to communication activities focused around cultural aspects, both of the EU and the Republic of Moldova.

The purpose of this project was to provide effective management of areas of the ecological network, with the aim of contributing to a favorable state of preservation of endangered and rare species and habitat types at a biogeographical level through the development of management plans.

The evaluation of human rights-based approach in Finland’s development policy and cooperation informed the Ministry on how HRBA has been applied in development cooperation during 2019-2021, how the approach could be implemented more effectively, and what its linkages with risk management are. The main users were the Ministry, the Development Policy Committee, different partners, actors and stakeholders.

The evaluation used a realist perspective, with contribution analysis providing an overall approach. A Theory of Change was developed. Context case studies covered long-term partnerships (Tanzania, Mozambique); HRBA in transition contexts (Zambia, Kenya, Vietnam) and HRBA in conflict contexts (Somalia, Kenya, Palestine).

Thematic cases on “Innovations and trends towards transformational development cooperation”; “HRBA in partnering with multilaterals”; “HRBA in severe headwinds” and “From cross-cutting objectives to HRBA, lessons from disability interventions” were completed. In addition to document review, over 250 interviews, three focus group discussions, and an e-survey among partners were undertaken. A separate component of the evaluation was the use of data science techniques for analysing documents.

The mid-term review (MTR) of the Support Programme for Refugee Settlements in Northern Uganda (SPRS-NU) was commissioned by Enabel.

The Enabel-led component of SPRS-NU aimed to enhance the livelihoods of refugee and host communities through technical vocational education and training and entrepreneurship support. It was implemented in five districts of Northern Uganda (Adjumani, Arua, Madi Okolo, Terego, and Yumbe) and the Kiryandongo district in Western Uganda. The MTR assessed the first 22 months (from December 2021 to September 2023) of the last phase of the programme.

The MTR served the purposes of accountability (through performance assessment), and learning and steering (by explaining what works and does not work, and why, as well as through evidence-based lessons for other interventions and recommendations for decision-making). It addressed the six evaluation criteria of relevance, coherence, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability, as well as the cross-cutting themes of gender and environment.

Qualitative data were collected during a field mission in five of the six intervention districts (including stakeholder interviews, focus group discussions with direct beneficiaries, and direct observation) and in remote interviews. The review also drew on documents and existing quantitative M&E.

The executive summary of the review is available on the Enabel website: https://open.enabel.be/en/2208/doc/44108/mtr-summary

The general objective of this evaluation was twofold. Firstly, to provide the relevant external co-operation services of the European Union (EU) and the wider public with an overall independent, evidence-assessment of the EU cooperation with the Independent State of Papua New Guinea (PNG) between 2014 and 2021. And secondly, to identify key lessons and to produce recommendations in order to inform the responsible decision makers on how to improve the current and future strategies, programmes and actions of the EU in PNG.

Its specific objectives were the following:

• To assess the performance (relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, coherence, impact, sustainability and EU added value) of EU support (policy dialogue and financial assistance); and
• To provide recommendations for the next programming period.

The evaluation paid particular attention to the areas of i) Rural development and Rural Infrastructure; ii) Investment, Trade and Private Sector Development; iii) Education and Technical and Vocational Education and Training; iv) Water, Sanitation and Hygiene; iv) Good Governance including Public Finance Management; and v) Forestry, Climate Change, and Biodiversity. It led to the identification of conclusions, lessons learnt (both positive and negative), good practices regarding the achievement of the EU’s cooperation with PNG with a set of targeted and useful forward-looking recommendations for the improvement of the programming, assistance, and implementation of current EU interventions in the country.
