Depaul International
In February 2022, CAFOD together with the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC), launched an emergency appeal in response to the conflict in Ukraine. In response to the conflict in Ukraine, CAFOD developed the Ukraine Crisis Response Programme. In Ukraine CAFOD partnered with Depaul International (DPI) to implement three projects funded from the DEC Appeal (from March 2022 to 28 February 2025), with remote support from CAFOD’s Ukraine Programme team.
The overall purpose of the evaluation is to reflect on DPI’s DEC funded response to the Ukraine Crisis, learn lessons and ensure accountability to affected communities, donors and partners. The evaluation will assess implementation and results vis-à-vis OECD/DAC criteria and the Core Humanitarian Standard (CHS). Findings from the final evaluation are intended to inform future programming for both DPI and CAFOD.
