This corporate emergency evaluation managed by the WFP Office of Evaluation covers the period January 2015 – March 2018 and assessed: a) partnerships; b) alignment; c) efficiency and d) results of the WFP response to the Syrian regional crisis.
The evaluation found WFP to be a conscientious partner, with its assistance aligned to wider frameworks and needs, and modalities and most activities relevant to context. The response was highly efficient and lessons from the many innovations can serve the humanitarian community beyond WFP.
The evaluation identifies lessons for balancing responding at scale with sensitivity to the needs of beneficiaries; placing their concerns and expectations at the center of the response.
Findings and lessons from this evaluation are also available in this video.
