Description
This evaluation is of Feed the Future, as a whole, with a special emphasis on the 19 focus countries and ZOIs where Feed the Future activities have been operating intensively. Of the 19 Feed the Future Focus Countries, four to five countries will be chosen by the evaluation team in consultation with the Feed the Future Internal Evaluation Panel (see Section 6) for in-depth evaluation. Additionally, the evaluation will include the regional programs (especially the three African regional programs) along with BFS programs including Agricultural Research; Agricultural Policy; Markets, Partnerships, and Innovations; and Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL). The range of programs to be evaluated includes those programs or interventions for which results are entered into the FTFMS. Within USAID, those activities reporting into FTFMS include those supported by the following funding streams: agriculture (including nutrition sensitive agriculture, market development, agricultural-linked trade promotion) through approximately $1 billion appropriated annually to USAID for Feed the Future; Food for Peace (FFP) development programs worldwide, of which Feed the Future funds approximately 20 percent through Community Development Funds; and nutrition-focused activities funded through the global health account. For FFP development and Global Health nutrition funding, the focus will be on how they contribute to Feed the Future's impact in the 19 zones of influence.
