Performance Evaluation of the AgriTech Catalyst International Development Window
Project disclaimer
Description
Performance Evaluation of the AgriTech Catalyst International Development Window: The Service Provider (SP) will conduct a performance evaluation (“the evaluation”) of the AgriTech Catalyst International Development Window between 2019 and 2022. The evaluation will be commissioned through DFID’s Global Evaluation Framework Agreement (GEFA). This evaluation will complement an ongoing process evaluation of a number of Catalyst Programmes and an interim impact evaluation of the UK component of the AgriTech Catalyst, commissioned by Innovate UK (IUK) and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) respectively. These studies have purposefully not select international development applicants and grantees for primary data collection. More detail is provided under the Constraints and Dependencies section of this TOR. The specific focus of the evaluation is to provide a rigorous and independent assessment of the effectiveness of the funding mechanism in stimulating agricultural innovation in and for developing countries.
Objectives
The primary purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of the AgriTech Catalyst International Development Window (Catalyst) in catalysing agricultural innovation in developing countries. Additionally, the evaluation will also assess the impact of selected individual projects funded by the Catalyst. The evaluation will require assessment of the Catalyst competition process and the individual projects funded by the programme. More specifically, learning from the Process Evaluation will feed directly into future rounds of the Catalyst and provide lessons for future DFID-IUK collaboration. The Impact component will support DFID’s learning on the effectiveness of the mechanism in accelerating the pace and scale of agricultural innovation and inform future decisions on support to the sector.
