EVPRA Endline Evaluation Final Report

World Vision Bangladesh (WVB) implemented the project titled “Establishing Vulnerable People’s Rights and Access to Social Safety Net Programmes (EVPRA)”, in two northern districts of Bangladesh viz., Dinajpur and Joypurhat under funding assistance of the European Union (EU). The project was implemented in partnership with two local NGOs: Pollisree, in Dinajpur (3 Upazilas: Dinajpur Sadar, Birampur, and Fulbari) and PUMDO (People’s Union of the Marginalised Development Organisation) in Joypurhat (2 Upazilas: Joypurhat Sadar and Panchbibi). 

The report highlights the results of strengthened Government officials and communities during CVA processes and mainly how the “Interface Meetings” held at the Union Parishad with the participation of community people and duty bearers created opportunities for public hearings and ensured service delivery accountability. The CVA approach efficiently paved the way for the beneficiaries to claim their SSNP entitlements.
