In Afghanistan, Action Contre la Faim (ACF) was implementing a peri-urban Water, Sanitation and Hygiene intervention (WASH) project in 6 villages in the town of Chaghcharan in the Ghor province. A total of 1,863 households are benefitting from this intervention, namely the residents of Tapa Shaahida, Masjid Jami, Jar-Tilak, Daha Kandiwar, Masjidi Muhammadi and Camp-e-Bahwaha. The project started in April 2013 and finished at the end of May 2014. In February 2014 a final evaluation has been carried out in order to evaluate effectiveness of activities but also appropriateness of response and relevance of the project to identified needs. The evaluation field research tried to measure coverage of the intervention as well as the degree of participation of the beneficiaries and the involvement of women from a gender perspective. It also considered coherence of the project with local, national and ACF policies as well as coordination between different stakeholders and actors involved.
