EVALUATION FINALE Capitaliser sur le chemin parcouru, les résultats obtenus, les échecs probables

EVALUATION EX POSTRepenser la stratégiePérenniser l'impact

Dans nos domaines d'intervention, nous ne pouvons plaquer des grilles, il nous faut

adapter nos indicateurs à chaque projet. Mais nous pouvons avancer en capitalisant sur les

programmes.Mutualiser les pratiques.

2EVALUATION A MI PARCOURS S'arrêter en cours de route pour réfléchir, penser, corriger

V A L U E RE

Evaluer permet de capitaliser puis de

partager les bonnes pratiques ainsi que les erreurs

Evaluer ne sert que si l'on peut mettre en

œuvre les recommandations de l'évaluation

Evaluer l'impact c'est aller au delà de la constatation des résultats

Evaluer pour se questionner sur la

durabilité

• ADAPTATION : a program must adapt to the situation all the time

• ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS : never forget them. Ex : EU, fond d’entreprise sur RH

• ASK : do not ask too much, ask yourself if what you are searching for is with respect to what people want to give/do

• ASSUMPTIONS : they are fondamental• CAPITALIZATION• DATA : yes absolutely but when it is connected to

the program, corresponding to needs expressed• DEVELOPMENT : what is it exactly?

• ENVIRONMENT : always goes along with development

• EXPERTISE : fondamental aspect of our work and better if it is local than coming from the « North »

• FLEXIBILITY : linked to adaptation, without flexibility, there is no success possible

• INCLUSIVITY : women, men, people with disabilities, young, people educated, people not educated..

• INDICATORS : from the beginning we must follow indicators

• LEARNING : acting on the field is learning each day from the program, next step : share the learning

• OBJECTIVES : never attach overly ambitious objectives to a program, always think about the situation, what can be done with the money available

• MARKET BASED APPROACHES : in agriculture, renewable energies, water and sanitation…

• MISTAKE : very important whenever you are in the process of a program to recognize mistakes, because you can therefore correct them and go forward

• MONEY : do not implement a project at the cheapest• NEEDS : this is the first step of the program

• PARTNERSHIPS : with local partners, with other agencies implementing programs, working together not aside

• PAYMENT FOR SERVICE : there is no service coming without a price, never forget this principle and prepare with the population before beginning the work

• POVERTY : this is the word at the center of our motivation, we are working in this field because we want to help people out of it. Don’t make money out of poverty

• PREDICT : we have to make the predictions we can, but we have to know that we cannot predict everything (climate change, human resources, economic situation, political context..)

• SOCIAL BUSINESS : B Drayton, Acumen Fund, the new solution? Key to sustanability?

• SUSTAINABILITY : what is going to be sustainable? Training? Infrastructures?

• TEAM : never forget the importance of the work on the ground, often the field workers are key to the process

• THEORIES : they are not the automatic solution to problems, let’s sometimes forget them

• URGENCY : total different way of acting on the field but the fondamentals must remain

• WHO : who will benefit from your action? Who will be kept aside?

Objective of this program : to improve local people's living conditions and combat deforestation by means of credit and savings products suited to the production and supply of improved

cookstoves (ICS) and gas stoves.

strengths and weaknesses

• Strengths : diverse products, available quickly, answering to needs, not too expensive for people

• Weaknesses : training needed for credit agencies, preference for gas cookstoves

Objective of this program : to improve the winter livelihoods of rural populations in the cold deserts of the Western Himalayas and to reduce households' energy vulnerability by enabling the development of income-generating activities in their newly improved living environment and by

setting up a sustainable network to disseminate energy efficiency.

strengths and weaknesses

• Strengths : innovative, good for the environment

• Weaknesses : not a single family can afford to buy a house like that, so possibility to change scale,

Objective of this program : Encouraging micro entrepreneurship by manufacturing and selling the ROVAI water pump in Cambodia

strengths and weaknesses

• Strengths : local available material, local available networks, easy to use, create a virtual economic circle (sales, independant entrepreneurs..)

• Weaknesses : the poorest families are not involved in the program

Objective of this program : solar cooking in Andes

strengths and weaknesses

• Strengths : answer to real needs, good for the environment, women benefit at first

• Weaknesses : need too much training, expensive, must find diversity of products to upscale for an entrepreneur

Objective of this program : Towards a Sustainable Access to a Lasting Habitat for all in Sahel Africa: Using Ancestral techniques

strengths and weaknesses

• Strengths : local available materials, very simple technic, environmental friendly, create employments, little business

• Weaknesses : water must be available, rely on own willingness (builders), growth is very slow, the Ngo chose to spread in different countries before obtaining the 5% of the population in the first country

Objective of this program : Installation of Maintenance Services for Points of Access to Water in Rural Zones (Example of Maintenance of Manual Pumps in Malawi)

strengths and weaknesses

• Strengths : maintenance is at the heart of sustainability, shops for replacement parts, process with local artisans, employment created, independence of local population

• Weaknesses : the time to build such a network, time to create a local partner capable, availability of replacement parts in the shops, level of technical training given by the local artisans, need for training (finance to seek for the NGO)
