Abstract
The FORECAST Project, implemented by the Academy for Educational Development (AED), was designed to build human and institutional capacity within Government of Liberia (GOL) ministries, public institutions, NGOs, and other organizations. The Project, which commenced in September 2008, ended in May 2011. USAID/Liberia requested that the Liberia Monitoring and Evaluation Program (L-MEP) conduct an End-of-Project Stakeholder Assessment toward the goal of making recommendations regarding whether USAID should continue to support Participant Training and Human and Institutional Capacity Development in Liberia and, if so, what the focus should be.The purpose of this assessment is to: Determine whether FORECAST has achieved its goal of increased operational effectiveness of targeted GOL ministries, public institutions, NGOs, and other partner organizations. Assess the management structure and processes FORECAST employed to determine if these were the most effective approach to implementing a human capacity project. Make recommendations to USAID/Liberia regarding whether a future human capacity development project should be implemented and if so, what areas it should focus on, and how best it should be managed.
