Synopsis (short abstract) In 2010, the Office of Evaluation (OED) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) began to independently assess the impact of various FAO programmes within member countries. OED reports directly to the Director General, as well as the FAO Council through the Programme Committee. In November 2014, the Programme Committee endorsed the selection of a group of Caribbean countries and Guyana for evaluation in 2015, including Trinidad and Tobago. The basis of the evaluation is the Country Programme Framework (CPF) which describes the scope of the assistance that FAO provides to a country. The Trinidad and Tobago evaluation covered the period of 2010-2015. The evaluation reviewed the work of FAO in Trinidad and Tobago, including its investments, technical assistance and collaboration with national and regional partners. The main aim of the evaluation is to inform the development of the new CPF cycle (beginning in mid-2015) for Trinidad and Tobago, as well as each of the targeted countries. The evaluation’s findings and recommendations will help to better orient FAO’s programme in the next programme cycle, and to make it more relevant to the priorities of the concerned governments. The evaluation also assessed the strategic relevance of FAO’s programmes in the national context, and of the initiatives implemented within the country. Furthermore, in the context of aid effectiveness, and of the international community’s concern over a country’s ownership of th e development process, the evaluation aimed to emphasize the involvement of national partners in the evaluation process. In particular, it is anticipated that the concerned governments will ensure the appropriation of the evaluation results by the relevant national institutions, and promote their use at the national level.
