Independent Review of CERF Allocations to Iraq during 2013 – 2015
This review is an assessment of the value added by the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) in the complex crises in Iraq, with a specific focus on allocations made from 2013 to 2015. Over the period reviewed CERF made six allocations1 for humanitarian response in Iraq totalling close to $44 million. The review uses the latest version of the Performance and Accountability Framework (PAF) of the CERF as an evaluation framework. In keeping with this framework, the review covers the following key questions:
- Were CERF submissions based on an inclusive planning process and adhered to established quality criteria?
- Were transparent systems in place for efficient allocation and use of CERF by recipient agencies and their partners?
- Were adequate monitoring and evaluation systems in place at the agency level for measuring and reporting on results?
