External evaluations. IBCTI Evaluation: There was one overall (including ACDI/VOCA and all other IPs) formal external ‘final’ evaluation conducted of ICAP in mid 2006, with report submission in November 2006. Given that ICAP had received funding to continue for a second program (as well as no- cost extensions to March 2007), the evaluation was more akin to a mid-term evaluation, with recommendations in line for improvements to an ongoing program.
