The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world's largest humanitarian network, reaching 150 million people each year through its 190-member National Societies. Red Cross acts before, during and after disasters, crises and health emergencies to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people.
The Building Resilient Communities in Fiji (BRCF) project began in January 2016 and runs until September 2019. It was funded by USAID and was implemented by the Fiji Red Cross Society (FRCS), with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) managing the contract.
The overall aim of the review is to identify to what degree the objectives of the BRCF were achieved and what have been the key lessons learned. This will include identifying and documenting the deliverables of the project, as well as reviewing how the methods used facilitated and contributed to the results attained. This analysis will lead to recommendations for further strengthening of the FRCS at the headquarters and branch levels.
The evaluation will review project implementation over the entire project period, and across the geographical area of the project, which included, two Divisional Service Centers, eight branches and three communities.
The FRCS staff, volunteers, branches, IFRC programme team, PNSs, universities and vulnerable groups identified in the Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment (VCA) are included in the scope of evaluation.
