Project Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) is part of the SUP project implementation. A qualitative impact evaluation was designed in 2014 to ensure that the SUP activities are well disseminated. This is essential to ensure that the lessons learned from this intervention can be used to address future shocks and improve government emergency response programs. The assignment comprises of a series of 2 assessments, baseline and endline, to be carried out in 3 treatment and 3 (comparable) control communities that did not receive project support. Particularly, this report is focused on an endline assessment and is organized as follows: Section 2 provides the purpose of the impact evaluation. Section 3 discusses the research methodology of the endline impact assessment. Also, CODI’s approach to the SUP project is introduced. Section 4 presents the results and the main findings from the qualitative and quantitative fieldwork. Section 5 discusses the analysis of the baseline and endline situation in the treatment and control community, and Section 6 concludes and provides recommendations.
