AHP Response to the Rohingya Humanitarian Crisis: Phase II Evaluation
To address the emergency humanitarian needs of displaced Rohingya people, the Australian Humanitarian Partnership (AHP) initiated the Rohingya Humanitarian Response in 2017, funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT). Phase I, which ended in 2018, was followed by Phase II in 2019. Phase II was a one-year humanitarian response to the ongoing humanitarian needs of Rohingya people and host communities, implemented by five AHP Partner NGOs (ANGOs): the Inclusive Communities consortium formed by Save the Children with Oxfam Australia and CARE Australia, World Vision Australia and Plan International Australia. More than AUD 10 million was allocated for Phase II to provide humanitarian support in the health, WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene), education and protection sectors.
An independent evaluation was conducted on the Phase II program in order to assess the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, inclusion, localisation, accountability, and the COVID-19 response of ANGOs, as well as to formulate action-oriented recommendations for Phase III of the program.
