This was a strategic evaluation of the SDC/Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs annual contribution of 80m CHF to the ICRC headquarters, assessing how the contribution is used and the extent to which the objectives of the contribution were achieved. Included assessment of structural, process and management dimensions being transformed by the funding partner, in light of significant growth of operations. Challenged a long-standing relationship and the lack of clarity on how the organizations support or strengthen one another through this non-earmarked funding partnership.
This was a behemoth of an evaluation: we used Social Return on Investment (SROI) methodology to measure the impact of the Rental Support Cash Programme. We assessed the socio-economic impact of six humanitarian agencies that provided rental subsidies to more than 14’000 families that were still living in camps. It worked! Not a single family returned, all had found or maintained their accommodation- and the programme provided $1.80 in social return for every $1 spent. The evidence was able to illustrate how to increase their impact/ROI for successive phases of the programme- and how landlords were actively using their earnings to develop more rental space.
