Evaluation of the Flexible Voluntary Contribution 2022-2025
The Flexible Voluntary Contribution (FVC), previously known as Flexible Multi-Partner Mechanism (FMM), is a pooled funding tool that allows resource partners to respond to development challenges in a timely and cost-effective manner. It serves as FAO’s main flexible multi-partner instrument to achieve the results under FAO’s Strategic Framework and offers an effective approach to delivering the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
What will the evaluation cover?
The evaluation will cover the current phase of the FVC, from 2022 to 2025, and will assess:
- the value of the FVC compared to traditional FAO funding systems
- its efficiency in advancing FAO’s strategic objectives and the SDGs
- its ability to generate additional funding
The evaluation will provide lessons and recommendations to inform the next phase of the FVC.
