FINDINGS FROM THE GLOBAL START FUND 2021-2022 EVALUATION

Towards the end of 2021, we commissioned an external review of the Start Fund. This review's purpose was to assess the extent to which the global Start Fund is ready to develop into a more locally led model while maintaining its mandate to respond rapidly to the gaps and unmet needs of people in or at-risk of crises.

The report draws on and builds upon all recent developments within the Start Fund and Start Network, including the establishment of national Start Funds, national and regional Hubs, research papers, progress reports, activities such as the annual Assembly, tiered due diligence pilot schemes and feedback from Start Network members.
