The impact evaluation is a follow up to the mid-term review of the operations of the Water and Sanitation Trust Fund initiated by the Advisory Board in 2007. It marks the first phase of a plan to regularly assess the impact of activities supported by the WSTF, in accordance with the recommendations of the Trust Fund Advisory Board. The impact evaluation was carried out by a team of three international consultants from October 2009 to January 2010. It focused on three components of the programme: - Country impact study on UN-HABITAT’s Kenya initiatives.
- Country impact study of UN-HABITAT’s Nepal initiatives.
- A global impact study of UN-HABITAT’s gender operations.
The impact evaluation concluded that “UN-HABITAT’s project activities on the ground are making a substantial, strategic and direct impact from a relatively small investment. The projects are good value for money and have an impressive leverage effect on follow-up and complementary investments.”
