| Summary: | This is the Global Program Review (GPR)
of the Population and Reproductive Health Capacity Building
Program (PRHCBP). Established in 1999, PRHCBP is a merger of
three pre-existing programs: population and reproductive
health, safe motherhood, and the program to reduce the
practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and adolescent
health. The main objective of the program is to build the
capacity of civil society organizations to develop and
implement culturally appropriate interventions in the
sensitive fields of population and reproductive health,
leading to healthier behavior at individual and community
levels, reducing the impoverishing effects of poor
reproductive health, and improving reproductive, maternal
and child health outcomes of hard-to-reach populations. The
review follows Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) guidelines
for preparing GPRs (annex A). These guidelines were first
approved in 2006, well after PRHCBP was initially conceived
and implemented. As a new evaluation product of IEG, GPRs
are attempting to raise the standards of the design,
management, implementation and evaluation of Global and
Regional Partnership Programs (GRPPs). This is an ongoing
process, and programs that are reviewed are not expected to
have adhered to all the standards inherent in these
guidelines, which had not been established at their outset. |
