FCDO – DELVe: Nigeria Human Development Evaluation, Learning and Verification Service

PLANE (as the Implementing Partners of the three windows) and DELVe (as the provider of M&E services) are yet to be fully mobilised. However, the M&E services provided by DELVe will include: (i) support for the development of ToCs and logframes (for PLANE and for the three ‘windows’ within it); (ii) identification of and engagement with key stakeholders relevant to the programme; (iii) development, refinement and use of programme- and context-specific evaluation tools; (iv) data collection (including surveys, KIIs and FGDs). Current and future outputs include: (i) ongoing liaison with FCDO-N to ensure M&E services are properly targeted and designed: (ii) the identification and delivery of specific evaluation services requested by FCDO-N (currently including a scoping review of community support to learning and a deep dive into education in emergencies programmes); and (iii) the verification, ad hoc advice, formative evaluation and performance evaluation services contracted by FCDO-N. The approach will ensure that disadvantaged young people – particularly girls – are fully and properly represented in the evaluation.
