1. Background
Organizational
Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe (DKH) is part of the Evangelisches Werk für Diakonie und Entwicklung e.V. (EWDE), one of the biggest welfare institutions in Germany. The organisation supports people affected by natural disasters, war and displacement in 36 countries across the world. This is delivered through a global network of partner organisations.
DKH provides technical assistance and comprehensive support to all partner organizations, focusing on capacity-building and reinforcing collaborative relationships. DKH has been supporting partner organisations in the delivery of emergency responses and resilience building initiatives in Yemen since June 2019. It currently operates from its office in Aden.
Brief description of the interventions to be evaluated
The project "Increasing Resilience through Innovative and Sustainable Improvement of Food Security and Livelihoods for Returnees, IDPs, and Host Communities in the Western Coastal areas of Yemen" is funded by a grant from the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) transitional development assistance (TDA). Implementation of the project is done through the partnership of DKH Yemen and local partner organisations Abs Development Organization (ADO) and Nahda Makers Organization (NMO).
The intervention started in August 2020 and is due to end in December 2024. The project was revised in 2023, with a revision of project deliverables on the West Coast as the initial intervention on fish farming (Fish hatchery, fish feed processing plant, and floating pounds) and their management by the local community was not realistic based on the existing context, absence of technical expertise (private and public) in the area and limited time frame and fund allocated by the project.
The overall objective of the project is to enhance the existing livelihood strategies and make them more sustainable through the successful introduction of locally adapted innovative products and processes, increasing community resilience and food security.
As per the Project Document, the results expected to be achieved under the Project are the following:
Outcome 1: Coastal communities are more resilient through the enhancement of existing Livelihood Strategies
Outcome 2: Coastal Communities are more food-secure
Timeline
The evaluation is expected to be completed within 45 days, from 1st November 2024.
