The Evaluation Project aims at designing and implementing both quantitative and qualitative independent evaluation studies and assessments of all major USAID supported projects, and can carry out additional activities supporting strategic information needs on an as-needed basis. This supports USAID’s 2011 Evaluation Policy requiring at least one performance evaluation of every large project by an independent evaluator, and aligns with the PEPFAR Blueprint, for Driving Results with Science, #1: leveraging greatest impact by investing in continued implementation science through rigorous evaluations. Evaluations are central to the principles of the Global Health Initiative and the PEPFAR/India country strategy Goal #2: Data for Decision-Making. The evaluations will provide an objective analysis of the projects focusing on performance, sustainability and achievement of results, and will also assess whether gender concerns have been addressed by the projects.

In FY 2014, the project will assess the performance of two USAID HIV/AIDS projects in India: An end of project evaluation of the Improving Healthy Behaviors Project (IHBP), and strategy assessment of the South-to-South HIV/AIDS Resource Exchange (SHARE) -VHS project.

This project, managed through Social Impact, will end by September 30, 2014. A follow-on project will be awarded by October 1, 2014.

Mechanism Target Information

Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.

This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
