This Report presents the findings and recommendations of the MTR of FSP that was commissioned by SOS Zambia and conducted between August and September 2022. The objectives of the MTR were: i) to assess the achievements of the programme against the outlined four expected outcomes; ii) Analyse the status of the goals and indicators set out in the five-year Results Framework in Zambia; and iii) to assess the progress made
on the recommendations of the 2021 FSP Review.
The MTR was conducted in three (3) SOS Zambia operational regions and in eight districts: Masaiti and Ndola districts in Kitwe Region; Choma, Kazungula and Livingstone districts in Livingstone Region, and Chibombo,
Chongwe and Mumbwa districts in Lusaka Region. Of the total sample, 914 were children who accounted for 67.6% of the respondents while 200 care givers or 17% of the total sample participated in the field phase.
Young people totalled 208 of the sample or 15.4% of the total beneficiaries sampled.
Mixed methods were deployed to collect qualitative and quantitative data. During engagements with children and their caregivers and parents, the Consultant team made sure that they were familiar with issues related to
consent, privacy and confidentiality. Appropriate techniques were used for collecting data directly from children with the focus group the main method used. Participatory methods such as focus group discussions (FDGs) were used to collect data from community members, young adults and youth and women groups. Key informant interviews (KIIs) were mainly used for caregivers and parents, FSP partners -Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and SOS management staff.
