The “Climate Advocacy Coordination for Resilient Action” (CACRA) project, funded by BMZ and implemented by GRC and PRCS, runs from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024. Momentum Consultants conducted a Mid-Term Review (MTR) to assess the project’s progress, effectiveness, and integration of climate-smart practices in enhancing PRCS’s climate-sensitive disaster risk management (CS-DRM) capacities.

• Inception Phase: Developed a comprehensive understanding of the project and designed a Data Collection Framework aligning with MTR requirements.
• Data Collection:
  • Desk Review: Reviewed and analyzed project documents and progress reports.
  • Focus Group Discussions (FGDs): Facilitated discussions with PRCS volunteers and community members to gather insights.
  • Key Informant Interviews (KIIs): Conducted interviews with stakeholders, including PRCS, GRC, academia, government officials, and civil society organizations.
• Data Analysis: Analyzed qualitative and quantitative data to evaluate the project’s relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, sustainability, and coherence.
• Reporting: Compiled a Mid-Term Review Report with findings on project progress, relevance, effectiveness, and recommendations for improvement.

Momentum’s review provided strategic recommendations to enhance the project’s impact and sustainability in climate-sensitive disaster risk management.
