Sobre el evento
Humanitarian interventions focus on saving lives, but underlying vulnerabilities to shocks and stressors, can have devastating impacts for households, communities, and systems, requiring a dual focus on resilience. Resilience is challenging to measure and understand an organization’s specific contribution, but even more so in fragile contexts and across certain vulnerable populations, including refugees. This session will highlight and discuss evaluation approaches, and key evaluation insights on strengthening resilience and self-reliance across vulnerable populations and contexts in Uganda and Somalia, as well as insights across Eastern Africa from a summary of evaluation evidence.
