Final Programme Evaluation Al Fakhoora Scholarship and Empowerment Programme

The Education Above All (EAA) foundation launched the Al Fakhoora Scholarship and Empowerment Programme in 2009 to promote the right to education in conflict and post-conflict regions. Phase I of the programme was implemented from 2009 to 2018 with co-funding from the Islamic Development Bank. Upon successful completion of the first phase and the positive impact seen on the students and their families, Phase II of the programme was launched in 2014 supporting 630 post-secondary students from underserved backgrounds in Gaza to optimize their potential to excel in their academic and professional life. The programme was implemented by UNDP in collaboration with local civil society organizations.

The main objective of this evaluation was to assess the performance of the programme and the extent to which the expected results have been achieved. The evaluation identified best practices and lessons learned and provide practical recommendations for EAA, UNDP and relevant stakeholders’ future interventions. The evaluation objectives have been operationalized and guided through a series of evaluation questions and sub-questions, combining qualitative and quantitative methods to facilitate triangulation and the robustness of the evaluation findings.
