The present Country Programme Evaluation (CPE) concerns the fifth UNFPA programme cycle in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), a country to which UNFPA has provided support since 1985. The CPE covers the period 2011-2014, and informs the plans for 2014- 2015/6 and the development of the next country programme cycle.
The purpose of the evaluation combined accountability for UNFPA’s performance with the broadening of the evidence base in order to inform design of the next programme cycle. Main audience of the evaluation concerns the UNFPA country office which commissioned the evaluation, with Government of DPRK and the UNFPA regional office and headquarters as secondary audiences.
