To Support UNDP’s Independent Evaluation in South Africa
ACE D&H Consultants Ltd is excited to announce that it has secured a prestigious contract to support the United Nations Development Programme’s (UNDP) Independent Office of Evaluation for the Independent Country Programme Evaluation (ICPE) in South Africa. This significant project will focus specifically on evaluating UNDP’s Nature, Climate, and Environment portfolio in the country.

The ICPE aims to assess the effectiveness, impact, and strategic positioning of UNDP’s environmental initiatives in South Africa. As environmental challenges grow more urgent globally, this evaluation will provide critical insights into how international efforts align with and support South Africa’s national priorities and sustainable development goals.
With its extensive experience in environmental and program evaluation, ACE D&H Consultants Ltd is ideally positioned to contribute to this comprehensive review. The consultancy will apply a mix of qualitative and quantitative evaluation methods to deliver nuanced insights into the program’s outcomes and sustainability. This evaluation is not just about assessing past performances but also about identifying forward-looking opportunities to enhance the effectiveness of UNDP’s nature, climate and environmental interventions in South Africa.
In collaboration with the UNDP Independent Office of Evaluation, ACE D&H will focus on several key objectives, including the relevance and coherence of current programs related to nature, climate change, and environmental governance. The evaluation will also scrutinize the integration of these programs within broader national policies and frameworks, ensuring that they effectively address both local and global environmental challenges.



This evaluation is timely as South Africa continues to face significant environmental challenges, including biodiversity loss, climate change impacts, and sustainable natural resource management. The findings from this ICPE will be instrumental in guiding the future direction of UNDP’s environmental initiatives, ensuring they are both impactful and aligned with the evolving environmental policy landscape in South Africa.
Through this assignment, ACE D&H reaffirms its commitment to supporting sustainable development initiatives globally. The consultancy looks forward to aiding the UNDP in promoting effective environmental governance and sustainable development practices in South Africa, fostering a greener future in alignment with both national needs and global environmental commitments.
