MI 10.3 Analysis
Source document
There is a lack of independent evaluation evidence as to the extent to which UNRWA’s interventions
are be fully built into a coherent, coordinated respond to the problems they aim to address. Four
evaluations provide evidence of the coherence of UNRWA’s response finding mixed results.
For example:
• The evaluation of UNRWA’s Resource Mobilisation Strategy found it to be relevant to UNRWA and fully
aligned with UNRWA’s MTS 2010-15, as well as having been sufficiently flexible to allow adaptation
to changing circumstances and priorities, although it identified that are further opportunities
for private sector partnerships, engagement with non-traditional donors, and relationships with
emerging markers to be developed.
• The E-Health Evaluation found that the introduction of the electronic information system by the
Health Department was relevant but was found to have lacked interaction and integration with the
63, 66, 9, 133
regions other electronic health systems and that there was little interaction between this system
and other electronic systems in the agency.
• The Evaluation of the Office of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees
in the Near East finds that has been some attempt to offer an agency-wide coherent response to
providing a decent standard of living for Palestine refugees but this did not meet expectations due
to the lack of a whole-agency, integrated approach to monitoring decent standard of living.
• The E-Card Evaluation noted that UNRWA has low engagement with other cash actors and has few
broader partnerships for learning and coordination (with the exception of the Lebanon Field Office
which has a well-developed partnership strategy).

Within the context of UNRWA’s funding shortfalls, cost-effectiveness and efficiency are fundamental concerns for all of UNRWA’s
projects. Evaluations highlight the knock-on effect of lack of available funds on the timeliness of project delivery. Evaluations
also bring out examples where funding uncertainty has led to inefficient project approaches and inefficient use of funds.
