Midterm Evaluation Report; Raayituu Community Development Project (RCDP)
As part of the national effort of contributing to the country’s socio-economic development in general and improving the socio-economic life of the project area in particular, the EECMY/DASSC-WBS has been implementing a development project entitled Rayitu Community Development Project in Rayitu district of Bale zone. The project is currently in its third phase (2011-2013), directly targeting 8 PAs (5 new and 3 old intervention areas) with such major project activities as clean water supply, education, gender, and stakeholder capacity building. In the old intervention PAs, this phase of the project makes one-time investments (such as grinding mill purchase and supply) or slight follow-up supports (such as follow-up of cooperative societies). The major objective of the mid-term evaluation was to assess the project’s progress, covering such aspects of the project’s implementation as planned versus implemented activities and their contributions to the set objectives, major challenges encountered and lessons learned, and to identify key opportunities and recommendations to improve the implementation for the remaining part of the project.
