Synopsis (short abstract) The Global Network against Food Crises was founded in 2016 as “an alliance of humanitarian and development actors united by a commitment to tackle the root causes of food crises through increased sharing of analysis, knowledge and strengthened coordination in order to promote collective efforts across the Humanitarian -- Development -- Peace Nexus.” To further the aims of the GNAFC, the GNAFC Partnership Programme was launched in July 2018 with the aim of building resilience in countries facing food crises with support from the European Union. The overall objective of the GNAFC Partnership Programme is to “substantially increase the resilience of vulnerable people’s livelihoods to food crises, through its contribution to the GNAFC, which will play a central role in translating evidencebased analysis into policy change at global and country level.”This evaluation serves the dual objectives of accountability and learning. This evaluation will firstly provide evaluation evidence and learning on performance and adopt a forward-looking perspective. Given that the GNAFC Partnership Programme piloted several innovative tools and approaches, this evaluation is also expected to provide evidence relevant to the needs to FAO corporate level users. Secondly the evaluation is expected to provide accountability for results to the donor.

The Global Network Against Food Crises Partnership Programme (GNAFC) ran from 2018 to 2022 to address the root causes of food crises and improve global coordination in tackling hunger and vulnerability. The programme was designed around three components: improving analytical tools, generating evidence-based knowledge of resilience solutions, and fostering coordinated responses across the humanitarian-development-peace (HDP) nexus. The initiative built on prior European Union-funded investments such as the INFORMED Programme and aligned with FAO’s strategic goals under SDG 2 (Zero Hunger). With a budget exceeding EUR 70 million, the programme sought to address complex food crises through both global and country-level interventions.

This final evaluation provides an independent assessment of the Global Network Against Food Crises (GNAFC) Partnership Programme – a four-year programme that concluded at the end of 2022. It serves the dual objectives of i) evidence and learning on performance, and ii) accountability for results to the donor. The evaluation questions focused on the relevance, effectiveness, results and sustainability of the GNAFC Partnership Programme. The evaluation followed a mixed methods approach drawing heavily on a desk review of existing documentary evidence, as well as on different project case studies.

The “Building Resilience and Promoting Durable Solutions in Lower Shabelle” project is one of the pro-resilience interventions in food crisis contexts implemented within the broader framework of the Global Network against Food Crises Partnership Programme. In September 2022, FAO carried out an assessment of the project to examine its impact on the resilience and food security of beneficiary households, as well as how the intervention may have contributed (or not) to support efforts to achieve Goal 2 of “Zero Hunger” of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This report presents the results of this assessment.
