The evaluation was commissioned by the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳independent Office of Evaluation to provide evaluative evidence for accountability and learning to inform the design of the next ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳CSP in China. It covers ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳activities from 2017 to 2020.

Conducted between August 2020 and April 2021, the evaluation assessed WFP¡¯s strategic positioning and role and the extent to which ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳has made the strategic shift expected by the CSP; WFP¡¯s contributions to strategic outcomes; efficiency and factors that explain ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳performance.

 

The evaluation concluded that:

 

  • Overall, the CSP is aligned with the direction of the government and has remained a relevant approach to supporting the government to meet the food and nutrition needs of the country.
  • Looking forward, more emphasis will be required on evidencing the results of the domestic pilot projects to demonstrate their added value for China as an entry point for possible ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳engagement on domestic issues. This would also help promote their upscaling within China and possible dissemination abroad through SSC.
  • Technical advice provided through the Centre of Excellence could be better adapted to the specific context of recipient countries.
  • The current financial model for the CSP needs stabilizing through a more strategic funding approach for the CSP priorities.
  • Mutually satisfactory procedures for ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳to access official development assistance funding from China still need to be confirmed.
