What does success look like in a complex programme? Lessons from the Break Free! End-Term Evaluation
How do we assess whether a programme has contributed to meaningful change when outcomes are shaped by multiple actors and contextual factors?
This was one of the questions explored through the Break Free! (BF!) End-Term Evaluation (ETE), commissioned by Plan International Netherlands and conducted by hera across nine countries—Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, Sudan and Zambia—as well as at regional level.
Mapping the Future of Community Health in the MENA Region
Community health systems are the backbone of equitable healthcare delivery, especially in regions where vulnerable populations, including children, face significant health challenges. Recognizing the critical need to strengthen these systems, the UNICEF Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Regional Office, with support from hera, commissioned a mapping of community health resources, policies, and infrastructure across 12 countries in the MENA region. The resulting findings are set to guide policymakers, donors, and civil society organisations in making strategic, informed decisions that will shape the future of community health in the region.
