It reviews the project’s relevance, design, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability and management performance using desk review, interviews and survey data. The project aimed to reduce reliance on persistent organic pollutant pesticides through integrated vector management, capacity building, policy reform and disposal of obsolete stocks. While disposal of pesticide stocks was achieved satisfactorily, progress on policy development, institutional strengthening and demonstration activities was uneven, and overall impact and sustainability were assessed as moderately satisfactory.
