Synopsis (short abstract) FAO’s Country Programme Evaluation in Cameroon assessed the strategic positioning of the Organization in the country and its contributions to the priority areas agreed with the Government of Cameroon for the period 2013-2017 (as identified in the Country Programming Framework). The period covered by the evaluation was characterized by an increased instability and a deterioration of the food security situation in some parts of the country due to the spillover effects of two major regional crisis: that in Central African Republic that led to the arrival of refugees in the eastern part of Cameroon, and the insurrection of the Boko Haram sect in north-eastern Nigeria that affected the far north region leading to the displacement of internal population and the arrival of refugees from Nigeria. The evaluation analysed FAO’s capacity to adapt its programme to respond to the changing needs of the country. The evaluation benefited from a close collaboration with the other Rome-based Agencies that also conducted evaluations of their respective country programmes and strategies during the same years. This collaboration led to a joint workshop in Yaoundé that represented an occasion for presenting the results of the evaluations to national stakeholders and discuss opportunities for future joint work.

In December 2013 the newly-independent South Sudan plunged into violent conflict as the ruling SPLM split and civil war broke out, triggering a major humanitarian crisis. The prevailing sense of optimism about South Sudan’s future after the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) was shattered. This is an evaluation of FAO’s programme in South Sudan between December 2013 and December 2015. It fulfills FAO’s corporate commitment to evaluate its L3 emergency operations: South Sudan had been declared a n L3 emergency in February 2014, which lasted until the end of 2015. This is predominantly a learning-oriented evaluation, looking back at FAO’s work in the last two years in order to provide guidance for the future strategic direction of the programme. It also fulfils an accountability function.

Evaluation of FAO’s Contribution to Cambodia Although Cambodia is rapidly transitioning to a more industrialised economy, the country is still among the poorest in Southeast Asia, and the risk of sliding back into poverty remains high, especially for rural households. The goal of FAO’s programme in Cambodia has been to contribute to the eradication of poverty, food insecurity and malnutrition while promoting sustainable natural resource management. The 2018 country programme evaluation highlighted FAO’s comparative advantage – as a trusted purveyor of data and technical advice. There is scope to leverage this position in advocating for inclusive and sustainable development, and for more investments in research and innovation. The evaluation recommends that FAO continue to promote evidence-based policy making, accompanied by clear economic arguments and analysis of trade-offs. In the context of the SDGs and UN reform, FAO could play a key role in leading such analyses, while facilitating coordination across the UN system to support policy implementation.
