The European Union (EU) co-operation with Yemen started in 1978 and still today the EU is among the main Western donors in the country. The EU Delegation in Yemen was developing its long term programming strategy in 2015 and commissioned a country programme evaluation to contribute to that process.
Objectives of the evaluation
The evaluation had two objectives; to provide an overall independent assessment of the EU’s past and current co-operation and partnership relations with Yemen and to identify key lessons and to provide recommendations in order to improve the current and future strategies, programmes and actions of the European Union.
Our role
Itad evaluated the EU co-operation strategy and its implementation during the period 2002-2012 using the OECD-DAC evaluation criteria, with a particular focus on food security, resilience, private sector development, social service delivery and governance.
