The objective of the EU Programme to harmonise training, employment and qualifications (AFEQ) is to strengthen the role of businesses and economic sectors in vocational and university training and in the process of integration of young people into the labour force. The project has an implementation period of 36 months starting from 15 September 2017. The Programme Support Unit ensures the implementation of the activities at central level and in 7 pilot wilayas.

Provision of independent, high-quality monitoring and evaluation inputs on projects and programmes through assistance in the initial stages and real-time evaluation of IfS actions (providing assistance for conflict prevention and urgent responses to political crises and man-made or natural disasters) which fall under the remit of the Service for Foreign Policy Instruments.

In 2015 a project to improve access to school and quality learning for vulnerable children was implemented in the DRC, corresponding to the fourth component of a large Government Programme called "ACCELERE" (Access, Reading, Retention and Accountability). Through this component, UNICEF engaged in a programme in Katanga and Equateur to improve school participation and learning by focusing on key issues of timely entry and vulnerability for 310,500 children. Through a descriptive and analytical evaluation of the implementation of the ACCELERE Component 4 project, the aim of this mandate was to inform the development by Primary, Secondary and Technical Education and partners including non-governmental organisations of new strategies to facilitate the enrolment of the most vulnerable children in school, in order to promote evidence-based quality education.

The main objectives of this evaluation were to provide the relevant services of the European Union, the interested stakeholders and the wider public with:
· an overall independent assessment of the performance of two TVET projects, paying particular attention to their final results measured against their expected objectives and the reasons underpinning such results;
· key lessons learned, conclusions and related recommendations.
