EXPECTED SERVICES
From the project documents, interviews and field visits, the evaluation mission will draw up a global and objective assessment of the SECAL project's intervention, from the project idea in 2010 until its completion. the various events, constraints, decisions, elements of the social and political context of the country in general, and the departments concerned in particular.
It will be based on an inventory of activities carried out: works, watersheds, social water management, subsidies to producers, research, interventions in the poultry and goat sectors, study on slaughterhouses, study and transformation of maize, actions undertaken through operators (SYFAAH and PAM), complementary studies, support to DDAS and activities carried out in Arcahaie and Artibonite, via the Directorate of Agricultural Infrastructure (DIA).
For this assessment, the evaluation team will collect available documentation, collect information and data, including data on logical framework indicators, and conduct interviews with those involved or involved in the design, conduct and supervision of the project. It is expected that the evaluation process will be highly participatory by involving all stakeholders involved in the SECAL project. A method has been initiated as part of the implementation of the Monitoring and Evaluation System of the SECAL project (focus group and quantitative surveys), the consultant will be able to consult it.
The final evaluation of the SECAL project should be conducted in an operational perspective. In particular, it should answer various (non-exhaustive) questions that question one or the other aspect of the evaluation, or even several:
- Do the objectives of the SECAL project appear to be well aligned with the issues of agricultural development 2010 - 2025, on the priorities defined in the three-year agricultural recovery plan (PTRA2013 - 2016) and on the challenges of agricultural development in the departments of the South and West; What is the link with the budgets actually allocated for these policies, particularly in the South?
- Is the project relevant to the issues of development and food security in the South and in Haiti?
- Is the SECAL project complementary, synergistic or duplicative of other projects and / or programs implemented by other actors or technical and financial partners as well as with State interventions in the agricultural sector in the regions? targeted areas and targeted sectors?
- Is the SECAL project consistent with the country strategy of the French Development Agency and the French Embassy, ??and its modes of intervention in rural development and in the fight against food insecurity?
- Has the identification and evolution of project activities and areas of intervention been relevant? Has the superposition of actions with different sources of funding with donor objectives increased the effectiveness of the project (post-emergency context of Hurricane Matthew) or has it disabled? ? Given the particular context of Haiti (vulnerability to climatic hazards and cataclysms, low productivity, unstable political and institutional environment, ....) The combination of a development approach (medium term) and a restoration of a situation previous crisis (urgency - short-term) has it amplified the results obtained or, on the contrary, reduced them? In both cases, the consultant will have to argue his positions with substantiated elements?
- Are beneficiary groups clearly identified? Do they meet the output targets in terms of production or the food security objectives of vulnerable groups? Do they constitute a representative group of the population or a systematically privileged minority?
- Has the continuation of AFD's investments in the plantain sector in the West been a promising choice (relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, sustainability)? What could be the conclusion on an approach that would promote the continuity and concentration of AFD's investments in particular areas in Haiti?
It will also be necessary to consider the possible evolution of production support, from a demand subsidy system to a rural credit system. The consultants will have to decide on the articulation between the different components of the project, which are part of the strengthening of the sectoral approach promoted by the MARNDR. Regarding the question of the subsidy, the consultant will also have to consider in which link a subsidy would be the most effective in terms of results with regard to the objectives of agricultural development policy? For this, the Consultant will be able to use Agrimonitor's resources and indicators.
