Welthungerhilfe Liberia TERMS OF REFERENCE Midterm Evaluation (MTE) of the“Increasing Production and Consumption of Orange-Fleshed Sweet Potatoes by Adapting a Systems Strengthening Approach in Liberia”

• Introduction

Deutsche Welthungerhilfe e.V. is one of the largest non-governmental organizations in Germany, operating in the humanitarian assistance and development fields. It was established in 1962, as the German section of the “Freedom from Hunger Campaign”, one of the world’s first initiative aimed at ending hunger. Our vision is a world in which all people can exercise their right to a self-determined life in dignity and justice, free from hunger and poverty. This Terms of Reference (ToR) outlines the framework for conducting the midterm evaluation (MTE) of the project “Increasing production and consumption of orange-fleshed sweet potatoes as part of a systems strengthening approach in Liberia”, implemented by Deutsche Welthungerhilfe (WHH) in partnership with the local implementing organization, Serving Humanity for Empowerment and Development (SHED). The project, which commenced in December 2023 and is at its midpoint of implementation, is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung BMZ). The thirty-seven-month project seeks to reduce poverty, enhance dietary and nutritional outcomes, and increase the incomes of 6,200 farmers across Montserrado, Margibi, Bong, and Grand Bassa Counties.

• Implementing partner SHED

Serving Humanity for Empowerment and Development (SHED) is a Liberian NGO working for just and resilient society, established in 2017 as a national NGO birthed out of Finn Church Aid Mission to Liberia. SHED focuses on improving the livelihoods of targeted communities’ households and residents (rights holders) through poultry farming and vegetable production. In the same vein, SHED operates a semi-commercial level farm that functions as a social enterprise that is committed to tackling local social problems, improving household and community nutritional intake, providing people with increased access to employment and improving their skills for self-employment, production, and contributing to an overall green economy. To achieve the above, SHED works closely with local duty bearers, the Ministry of Agriculture, other government agencies, and the private sectors through collaboration and partnership.  

• About the Project

SHED is implementing an Orange Fleshed Sweet Potato (OFSP) and vegetable production project in rural communities across the four programmatic counties of Montserrado, Margibi, Bong, and Grand Bassa, aiming to empower 6,200 farmers—4,500 engaged in OFSP production and 1,700 in vegetable farming—by promoting sustainable agricultural practices and enhancing their involvement in income-generating activities. Additionally, the initiative supports farmers through the establishment of Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs) to strengthen financial inclusion and community resilience.The Objectives and Intermediary Outcomes/results of the Project are as follows:

Overall Objective/Impact	Project objective /Outcome	Sub-targets/ Outputs/ Results

• Rational, Purpose and Priority Objectives of the Evaluation

The thirty-seven-month project implementation period reached the midpoint in July 2025. Against this background, SHED is seeking an external consultant to conduct the midterm evaluation and to write a report on the evaluation’s findings. The main objective of this evaluation is to examine the extent to which the project has been able to achieve its set results through implementation of activities geared towards fostering the necessary change in the results areas. Furthermore, the evaluation is to appraise the overall planning, implementation and monitoring processes of the project in relation to the realization of the set objective, expected results and related impact. The evaluation process aims at critically and objectively reviewing and documenting achievements, challenges and lessons learnt and giving concrete recommendations for the strengthening of ongoing implementation. More precisely, to determine the extent to which key results and targets are being achieved and to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the project implementation. The evaluation will assess the relevance of the objectives, efficiency, effectiveness, indication of early impact, and sustainability of the project. The evaluation will also assess whether the project is on track to achieve its intended results, the strategy for sustaining the project’s activities and outcomes, the need and appropriateness for future related work, and lessons learned as well as advancing actionable recommendations.

• Scope of the Evaluation

The evaluation will utilize a systematic and objective approach to assessing the above mentioned project, its design, implementation and results. The aim is to determine the relevance and progress toward the achievement of objectives, efficiency, effectiveness, related signs of early impact and sustainability. The evaluation should provide credible and useful information, enabling the incorporation of lessons learned into the decision-making process of both SHED and the donors, the BMZ and the WHH. The MTE will cover all the project’s components, geographical locations and the period of the project up to the point of the MTE.

• Evaluation Criteria and Questions

The MTE will be implemented within the framework of the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Develop (OECD) and Develop Assistance Cooperation (DAC). These criteria are used to assess the quality and performance of development interventions. The framework provides a structured approach for assessing how well a project is performing and what adjustments are needed. The table below presents the OECD/DAC Evaluation Criteria and Questions. Please note, consultants can propose additional questions that may improve the overall quality and utility of the MTE findings.RelevanceThe MTE will examine whether the above-mentioned project’s objectives and design respond appropriately to the needs, priorities, and challenges of the target beneficiaries and the wider context in which it operates. Evaluators should look for alignment between project goals and the actual problems faced by the community, participants.

Criteria

Evaluation Questions

Relevance

· Were community needs and priorities adequately consulted during design? · To what extent were government/local development plans and policies considered? · Was the project design based on sound evidence or needs assessments? · Were gender and vulnerable groups’ needs adequately reflected in the project objectives and activities? · To what extent did the project address the priority issues related to sustainable cultivation, diet diversity, and livelihoods? · Are the objectives clear and appropriate? · Are the activities the best way to achieve the objectives? · Did it address environmental issues such as deforestation, grazing, and income inequality?

EfficiencyThe MTE will examine how well the project has so far used its resources (financial, human, time, and materials) to achieve its outputs and outcomes. Evaluators should assess whether the project delivers value for money by comparing inputs with results, and whether activities were implemented in a timely and cost-effective manner.  

Criteria	Evaluation Questions
Efficiency	· Was project implementation cost-effective and timely? · Were inputs used efficiently to achieve outputs? · Were the resources used in a value-for-money manner? · Are there opportunities to improve efficiency? · Did coordination among partners (e.g., NGOs, government) enhance or hinder efficiency? · Were there unnecessary overlaps or duplication of efforts with other projects?

 EffectivenessEffectiveness of the project will be assessed by focusing on the extent to which the project is on track to achieving its stated objectives and intended results. Evaluators should assess how much progress has been made toward key targets, whether planned activities have been delivered as intended, and what factors have facilitated or hindered results.  

Criteria	Evaluation Questions
Effectiveness	· Were project objectives met based on baseline and logframe targets? · Is the project on track to meet its outcomes? · What major achievements have been made to date? · What factors are limiting the achievement of results? · Was monitoring data used effectively to guide improvements? · Were any corrective actions taken during implementation, and were they effective?

 Signs of Early ImpactImpact evaluation is more feasibility or appropriate during an end line evaluation. At the midpoint of the project, it too early to accurately and fully capture both positive and negative changes on the beneficiaries. Therefore, this assignment will consider analyzing emerging patterns and early outcomes.  

Criteria	Evaluation Questions
Impact	· Are there early indications that the project is on track to achieve its intended outcomes by the end of the implementation period? · What key achievements or milestones have been reached so far, and how do they contribute to the expected results? · What are the emerging challenges or barriers that could hinder the achievement of project outcomes if not addressed?

SustainabilityMTE will also assess the likelihood that the benefits of the project will continue after external funding or technical support has ended. Evaluators should consider whether the project has built the necessary conditions including technical, financial, institutional, social, and environmental for long-term continuation of results. Furthermore, to support long-term impact and continuity during project implementation, it is essential to assess early indicators and the systems being established.  

Criteria	Evaluation Questions
Sustainability	• Has the intervention been sustainable so far? • Are benefits likely to continue after external funding ends? • What environmental, economic, or institutional changes are likely to last? • What can be done to enhance sustainability? • Are beneficiaries or partners showing interest in scaling or replicating the approach?

 

• Approach and Methodology

The MTE will utilize both quantitative and qualitative evaluation methods. The data collection activities will include desk review with a focus on the relevant project’s documents such as quarterly and annual reports, monitoring reports, and training manuals.
