Strategic evaluation on WFP¡¯s support to refugees, internally displaced persons, and migrants

none
This strategic evaluation provides an independent assessment of the support provided by ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳to refugees, internally displaced persons and irregular migrants between 2017 and mid-2024. Its purpose is to meet WFP¡¯s accountability requirements and inform the design and implementation of relevant policies, strategies, approaches and partnerships.

The evaluation found that ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳improved its ability to respond to complex and changing displacement situations, but its strategic vision and position on assisting food-insecure refugees, internally displaced persons and irregular migrants remain unclear, particularly with regard to irregular migrants.

The evaluation recommends that:

  • ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳formulate a clear corporate position on assisting refugees, internally displaced persons and irregular migrants;
  • Specify its programme offer and operational partnerships for integrating refugees, internally displaced persons and irregular migrants into the full range of programmes;
  • Strengthen its data systems and analytical capacity;
  • Ensure that all programmes are based on comprehensive analysis of the status of refugees, internally displaced persons and irregular migrants in relation to their intersecting vulnerabilities and protection risks;
  • Develop a systematic approach to strategic and operational partnerships with agencies mandated to work on displacement and migration issues;
  • Strengthen resource mobilization with a view to more effectively meeting the immediate humanitarian needs of refugees, internally displaced persons and irregular migrants and host populations while embedding support for the transition towards long-term solutions from the start of a humanitarian response.
