Catholic Relief Services (CRS) commissioned a Mid-Term Evaluation of the Title II Multi-Year Assistance Program (MYAP) entitled Wellness and Agriculture for Life Advancement (WALA) being implemented by a consortium of seven implementing partners under the leadership of CRS in eight districts of southern Malawi. The program has three components, (1) a maternal and child health and nutrition component that is focused on pregnant and lactating women and children under the age of five years, (2) an agriculture and natural resource management component targeting smallholder farmers with landholdings less than one hectare and (3) a disaster risk reduction component building capacities for preparing for and mitigating natural disasters while also strengthening household coping capacities through food distributions. The total program cost to Food for Peace at approval was estimated to reach US$ 80,925,900 with 105,990 MT of commodities for monetization and distribution. A Cost-sharing commitment of US$ 886,595 was made at the time of the approval. The program targeted having impact on 214,974 chronically food insecure households over a period of five years from 8 May 2009 through 30 June 2

Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
