The study evaluates the Department for International Development’s partnership with the World Health Organisation. It provides an assessment of both the relevance and appropriateness of the partnership and of the efficiency and effectiveness of DFID’s activities under the partnership. The study discusses the concept of partnership creating baselines for future monitoring and evaluation. The report is structured around the five evaluation criteria of relevance, appropriateness, unity, efficiency, and effectiveness. The study explores these at three levels within DFID and WHO and the team has also consulted other stakeholders. However, the evaluation does not seek to address the performance of either partner, rather it concentrates on the way that each partner perceived performance as part of the evaluation criteria.
