Evaluation of Asian Cities Climate Change Resilience Network (ACCCRN) (Rockefeller Foundation, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam)
Team Leader |
| |
The Asian Cities Climate Change Resilience Network (ACCCRN) aims to catalyze attention, funding, and action on building climate change resilience for poor and vulnerable people by creating robust models and methodologies for assessing and addressing risk through active engagement and analysis of various cities.
Through ACCCRN, it is anticipated that a network of Asian cities will have developed robust plans to prepare for, withstand and recover from the predicted impacts of climate change. To accomplish this, ACCCRN must meet the following objectives: i) Test and demonstrate a range of actions to build climate change resilience in cities; ii) Build a replicable base of lessons learned, successes and failures; iii) Assist cities in the development and implementation of a climate change resilience building process; and iv) Help cities continue activities that build climate change resilience
Anticipated results of the ACCCRN program include: a) Capacity building -
Selected cities in South and South East Asia have adequate capacity to plan, finance, coordinate, and implement climate change resilience strategies; b) Network for learning and engagement - A broad range of representatives of cities, civil society, donors, private sector, technical partners engage with ACCCRN to mutually identify and solve key climate change resilience problems; and c) Expansion, deepening of experience, scaling up - New and more diverse partners provide resources and funding for replication in current and new cities to support the implementation of resilience plans and strategies.
|
| |
Julian is leading the evaluation of ACCCRN. This entails a formative mid-term evaluation in 2011 and a summative evaluation in 2014. The evaluation forms part of a larger M&E Grant, to Verulam Associates, with Verulam leading on monitoring and Julian on the evaluation.
The Mid-Term Evaluation, covering 10 cities in four countries, has the following purposes:
1. Learning for mid-course corrections and improvements in the strategy and implementation of ACCCRN;
2. Accountability to the Rockefeller Foundation President and Board of Trustees and other key stakeholders for the funds invested to date in ACCCRN;
3. As a public good, contributing knowledge on approaches, methods and tools for evaluating climate change resilience to the field of philanthropy, the fields of development evaluation and climate change adaptation and resilience.

Assessment of Suggested Indicators & Development of Value for Money Methodology for DFID Governance Programming (DFID - Politics and the State Team, UK)
Consultant |
| |
DFID recognises the need to improve the monitoring of both its impact and value for money (VFM) of its governance programming. Under the Results Action Plan it has developed a draft set of suggested programme-level indicators for all areas of DFID governance and conflict activity. This includes support activities on security & justice; civil service reform; elections; parliamentary strengthening; political party capacity building; the media; empowerment and accountability; anti-corruption; tax / revenue generation; human rights; peacebuilding & peace process support; demobilisation, disarmament & reintegration (DDR); conflict prevention & reconciliation; conflict sensitivity; and addressing the underlying drivers of conflict.
DFID now needs to test the relevance and robustness of the draft suggested indicators and to assess which are the most suitable for different programming purposes. As a related task, DFID has a strong need to set out how Value For Money can best be measured in governance and conflict programming, and whether the suggested indicators have a role in this or not.
|
| |
ITAD has been contracted by DFID's Politics and the State Team to undertake this assignment. Julian is one of two ITAD staff working on it with three associate. The tasks include: i) developing methodologies to assess relevance and robustness; ii) review of a sample of DFID logframes across 17 areas of governance programming and assessing the relevance the suggested indicators to these programmes; iii) using data quality assurance techniques, assessing the robustness of the suggested indicators; iv) reviewing existing VFM approaches; v) developing a VFM methodology for governance programming; v) assessing whether the suggested indicators have a utility in VFM measurement.

Formulation of GDN and GDNet strategies, and support to funding submissions (GDN / GDNet, Egypt and India)
Consultant |
| |
The recent DFID evaluation of GDNet indicated the need to develop a clear strategic plan to clearly map out the GDNet direction and objectives over a 3 - 5 year timeframe. This strategy required a clear theory of change, about how what it does would have an effect. This took into consideration revising GDNet's objectives concerned with informing policy and reorienting GDNet from being a Knowledge Repository to being a Knowledge Broker, and developing an outreach function.
|
| |
Julian led the formulation of GDNet's 2010-2015 Strategy. He managed consultations with the GDN President and staff, Regional Network Partners, and GDNet staff, and drafted the GDNet Strategy Paper based on these consultations. Following the development of the Strategy, he drafted a successful funding submission to DFID and DGIS for GDNet. Based on this work, Julian has been contracted by the parent organisation, GDN, as part of a two-person team to develop the overall GDN strategy and workplan. This has included redefining GDN's core capacity building mission, leading the re-engineering of its main streams of work (research competitions, conference, etc), and facilitating consultations, including at Yale with some of the world's leading developing economists.

Overall Director of Evaluations; Team Leader (two evaluations); annual synthesis author (two syntheses) |
| |
DFID's performance management system is supported by periodic independent evaluations at different levels of operation. Five Country Programme Evaluations (CPEs) or Regional Programme Evaluations (RPEs) are carried out per annum by an independent evaluator. These evaluations provide important accountability and lesson learning functions for DFID. The primary audience for the evaluations is the UK government and DFID senior management, including heads of country offices. Evaluation of operations at country level is increasingly important as DFID has become increasingly decentralised in order to improve the relevance and coherence of development assistance, while maximising opportunities for partnership, influencing and donor harmonisation around a nationally owned programme for poverty reduction.The key aim of the evaluations has been to assess DFID's strategy choices in its bilateral programmes and the effectiveness of its strategy implementation - i.e. the results it has achieved.
ITAD has conducted CPEs / RPEs in: Afghanistan; Bangladesh; Cambodia; the Caribbean Region (Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago); the Central Asia, South Caucasus and Moldova Region [CASCM] (Armenia, Georgia, Kyrgyz Republic, Moldova, Tajikistan); China; DR Congo; Ethiopia; Ghana; West Bengal State (India); Indonesia; Kenya; Malawi; Mozambique (twice); Nepal; Pakistan; Rwanda; Sierra Leone; Sudan; the Southern Africa Region (Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, South Africa); Tanzania; the Western Balkans Region (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Serbia); Yemen, Zambia
