This evaluation analyses Switzerland’s cooperation with Tanzania as defined in the Cooperation Strategy (CS) 2011 – 2014.
The cooperation programme is mainly implemented by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) is phasing out of the cooperation in Tanzania but continues to support some programmes, mainly at regional level in macroeconomic reforms. The total CS Tanzania 2011 - 2014 amounts to around CHF 100 million.
The country evaluation uses a mutual learning process to assess whether Switzerland is achieving the strategic objectives of the CS in Tanzania, and how efficiently the strategic and operational steering mechanisms of the Swiss Cooperation Office have been put in place.
The evaluation results are based on the analysis of existing documents and are complemented by a field visit which includes peer exchanges and semi-structured interviews along four Evaluation Areas.
The evaluation report, the conclusions and the recommendations are structured according to the four Evaluation Areas (EA): EA 1 Context analysis, EA 2 Relevance and appropriateness of project/programme portfolio, EA 3 Implementation of the CS and their portfolio, and EA 4 Results of the CS in relation to the results at country level.
