On 18 February, 2015, UNFPA Armenia country office held a Stakeholder Meeting, where the UNFPA Armenia 2010-2015 Country Program Evaluation Report and the UNFPA Armenia 2016-2020 Country Program were presented and discussed.
In 2014, the UNFPA Armenia Country Office executed an independent evaluation of the UNFPA 2010-2015 country programme of assistance to Armenia which aimed at providing the UNFPA, national stakeholders and wider audience with an independent assessment of the relevance and performance of the UNFPA country programme for Armenia; with an analysis of how UNFPA has positioned itself to add value in an evolving national development context as well as drawing key lessons from past and current cooperation and providing a set of clear and forward-looking options leading to strategic and actionable recommendations for the next program.
Taking into account the recommendations of the UNFPA Country Program Evaluation, the Office has already drafted the next country program for 2016-2020 which was presented and discussed during the stakeholder meeting.
There was a lively discussion in a warm atmosphere, with many comments and words of appreciation and wishes for fruitful cooperation in the coming five years.
