It focuses on NRC’s HLP programming in Baidoa, Garowe, Kismayo and Mogadishu, where different models have been implemented in response to distinct tenure, eviction and urban governance contexts.
The evaluation, conducted by Samuel Hall between November 2025 and April 2026, examines the contribution of HLP models to tenure security, eviction prevention, access to services and social inclusion; assesses sustainability and inclusiveness; and compares performance, trade-offs and contextual conditions across models.
It uses a qualitative, comparative design based on 27 key informant interviews, 16 focus group discussions with 96 participants, four city-level case studies and an extensive desk review.
The analysis is structured around relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact and sustainability, with tenure security and eviction risk reduction treated as primary outcomes, and access to services and social cohesion as enabling outcomes.
