Annual Summary Reports of the Conflict, Stability and Security Fund's Counter Terrorism Operations from 2023 to 2024
The Conflict, Stability and Security Fund (CSSF) carries out annual reviews of its programmes, meticulously assessing the outputs and outcomes at two levels: output and outcome. This rigorous process ensures the effectiveness of the programmes and their contribution to maintaining stability and security in various regions.
The reviews are conducted by an expert team, which includes at least one member who is independent from the programme being reviewed. The team evaluates the outputs and outcomes of the previous year, considering factors such as financial and risk management, technical and programme management standards, and value for money.
Conflict and gender sensitivity are key considerations in the CSSF programme reviews. The team takes into account the impact of the programmes on different genders and the potential for the programmes to exacerbate or alleviate conflicts.
The reviews also consider changes to the political environment, as these factors can significantly influence the success of the programmes. Contextual factors such as changes to the political environment are assessed to ensure that the programmes remain relevant and effective in the current context.
To protect the safety and security of beneficiaries, partners, and partner governments, some details about the programmes may not be disclosed. This withholding of details is done to protect national security and the privacy of those involved in the programmes.
Despite this, the team aims to publish information for all programmes, sharing the lessons learned during the reviews. Assessment scores for outputs and outcomes range from 4 (meeting or exceeding expectations) to 1 (most targets not met), providing a clear picture of the programme's success.
The CSSF programme reviews are a crucial part of ensuring the effectiveness and success of the programmes, helping the organisation to continually improve and adapt to changing circumstances. The results of the reviews are used to identify areas for improvement and to inform the planning and implementation of future programmes.
