Abstract
In this mid-term formative evaluation, the objective is to learn from the early years of IMCHA and identify strategies that can inform and strengthen IMCHA’s implementation until the end of the initiative, as well as speak to related future activities. The evaluation addresses a total of ten evaluation questions on four themes:
1. Integrity in the design of the IMCHA model: How has the IMCHA design been operationalized, relative to the purpose and objectives of the program?
2. Integration of gender/equity dimensions: How are the components of the IMCHA initiative addressing equity-sensitive and gender dimensions at the current state of implementation?
3. Innovation and scaling: How has the focus on innovation and scale been articulated in the research projects of IMCHA?
4. Program delivery: How is the implementation of IMCHA being facilitated by IDRC, relative to the purpose and objectives?
