The main objectives of this evaluation were to a) assess SDC's performance in empowerment of communities by examining SDC’s interactions with implementation partners and, in turn, their interactions with the communities, b) appraise SDC’s approaches to building on capacities and sensibilities of implementation partners' organisations to be responsive to community needs and priorities, and, c) initiate an institutional learning process within the SDC on how to consistently include the stakeholder perspective in its activities. The SDC selected Bolivia and Burkina Faso as country case studies illustrative of significant empowerment strategies of the SDC.
