Fiji Cyclone Recovery Program Evaluation

The Cyclone Recovery Program (CRP), a four-year AUD37,396,000 investment (2021 - 2025), is aimed at supporting Fiji's recovery from Tropical Cyclone (TC) Yasa in 2020 and TC Ana in 2021.

In November 2024, DFAT commissioned an independent evaluation of CRP to assess the overall performance of the CRP’s school rehabilitation component. The evaluation criteria included relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability to determine program performance against the end of program outcomes and identify best practice and recommendations.

The evaluation identified several key lessons learned from the implementation of the CRP. These lessons relate to project management, community engagement, localisation strategies, sustainability considerations and the integration of cross-cutting themes. Based on these lessons, the report provides a set of seven recommendations aimed at enhancing the effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of future disaster recovery initiatives in Fiji and other similar contexts.
