OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT Sample Clauses

OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT. USAID-Nigeria transferred field support funding annually, over the period January 2006 through February 2012, to two consecutive, AID/Washington centrally-funded projects, first, to ACCESS and subsequently, when ACCESS ended, to MCHIP. USAID/Nigeria has commissioned MEMS II to help organize this final external evaluation of the ACCESS/MCHIP Nigeria project. The evaluation will concentrate on the ACCESS/MCHIP Nigeria Project as designed and implemented to achieve stated results for Nigeria over the above-mentioned period. The last external evaluation of the project was conducted in 2009. Maternal, neonatal and child health, reproductive health and family planning (MNCH/RH/FP) results under three USAID-funded projects –ACCESS/MCHIP, Fistula Care and Improved Reproductive Health in Nigeria (IRHIN) - were evaluated by an external evaluation team.

Given that the ACCESS/MCHIP Nigeria project supported MNCH/RH/FP interventions in communities located in states with some of the worst indicators in Nigeria, USAID/Nigeria is commissioning this end-of-project external evaluation to assess the difference the project has been able to make to the health of women and newborns in Kano, Katsina and Zamfara States relative to the project objectives and its MNCH/RH/FP indicators (with attention to how those changed over time). The main objectives of the evaluation are to assess: • ACCESS/MCHIP’s performance achievements in Nigeria in sequential project periods, with reference to the MNCH/RH/FP indicators agreed upon by ACCESS/MCHIP and USAID/Nigeria, encompassing issues of coverage, cost-effectiveness, couple years of protection, contraceptive prevalence and measures of impact on mortality; • ACCESS/MCHIP’s performance in facilities and communities in improving the quality of care in emergency obstetrics and newborn care (EmONC) services; antenatal and postnatal services; safe maternity services for normal births in service facilities; and FP. • Sustainability of achievements at the level of the states, local government areas (LGAs) and service delivery sites, and impact on health policies at federal and state levels of government. The evaluation team should assess how the choices of the selected service facilities in selected LGAs in selected states were made, an...
