Abstract

This report describes the approach and findings of the mid-term evaluation of the European Union (EU) funded Project on ‘Local Empowerment of Actors for Development (LEAD) in Lori and Tavush Regions’ of Armenia. The project is implemented through the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) with the Ministry of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure (MTAI) as the Armenian Government Implementing Partner. The evaluation was conducted during the September 2023 - February 2024 period. The purpose of the evaluation was to provide a mid-term review of the project outcomes, to enable those implementing the project, as well as national level policy makers to have a better sense of the extent to which the project is meeting its objectives, identification of barriers to implementation, and opportunities for improved delivery. An evaluation of outcomes against project objectives before the end date also enables the implementing partners to explore the potential for altering the implementation approach and/or diverting resources to under-performing areas. The LEAD project has three overarching Objectives: • Objective 1: Mobilize, capacitate, and incentivize local actors to define community needs-driven strategies in Lori and Tavush regions. • Objective 2: Build supporting infrastructure to prioritize, implement and sustain local-grown initiatives in Lori and Tavush regions. • Objective 3: Improve the capacity of the relevant ministries and other bodies and develop policy mechanisms at the national level for successful piloting and sustainability of the LEADER approach in Armenia (policy component)
