    Ethiopia is a low-income country and agriculture is the mainstay of the economy, accounting for for 34 percent of GDP and 70 percent of total employment share. Ethiopia remains one of the world’s poorest countries, despite the significant progress achieved in reducing poverty and hunger. The Government of Ethiopia through its Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP II) has consistently prioritized the transformation of agriculture from low-input, subsistence-oriented production systems to a fast-growing, intensive and commercially oriented sector to support the country’s aspirations to become a middle-income country by 2025. FAO’s Country Programme Framework (2016-2020), was formulated based on the GTP II. Over the evaluation period (2014-2019), FAO exceeded the resource mobilization targets. Overall, FAO’s programme displays several imbalances and disconnects, specifically between development activities and emergency response. The evaluation calls for FAO to adopt a more cohesive programmatic approach and continue to consolidate its fragmented programme. In the context of the Government’s plans for agricultural transformation, the evaluation also recommends that FAO support an economically sound value chain and market-based approach to agricultural development, while upholding normative values of inclusiveness and ecological sustainability.

    The Ethiopia Country Evaluation has been an independent and forward looking process, providing FAO’s stakeholders with a systematic and objective assessment of the relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impacts and sustainability of the programmes and activities undertaken by FAO in Ethiopia. The evaluation considered all of FAO’s work in Ethiopia during the period 2005- 2010, irrespective of the source of funding (regular programme or extra budgetary resources) or the location of project managem ent (HQ, Regional Office or the FAOR). The evaluation also included an assessment of the activities of the FAO representation which are not necessarily carried out through projects. The team developed a wide ranging evaluation framework; in broad terms, FAO’s performance was evaluated against the FAO corporate objectives, the draft National Medium Term Priority Framework (NMTPF), the draft FAO Disaster Risk Management Plan of Action (PoA) and by review of projects implemented in the country.
