Midline Evaluation of the ''Reinforcing Local Resilience and Capacities for Peace' project in Central African Republic

Danish Church Aid

Bodhi completed the midline evaluation of the project 'Reinforcing Local Resilience and Capacities for Peace' in Central African Republic for Danish Church Aid (DCA). The project is funded by the EU and implemented by a consortium of DCA, Conciliation Resources, and local partners. The project focused on local peace mechanisms with a dual aim: to implement inclusive activities that provide communities with the necessary support to resolve conflicts non-violently, and to enhance marginalised groups' access to and participation in local dialogue and violence prevention initiatives. The evaluation assessed the extent to which project activities contributed to the specific objectives and expected results after the first year of implementation. The methodology involved primary data collection in 19 communes through 24 key informant interviews, 25 group discussions with programme participants, and a community survey of 507 individuals, alongside a review of programme documents, all structured around the OECD-DAC evaluation criteria.
