EVALUATION OF THE DOE
SIRF FUND’S
REVOLVING LOAN PROGRAMME (RLP)
Summary
The Sustainable Island Resource Framework (SIRF) Fund in Antigua and Barbuda serves as the primary financing mechanism for environmental and climate initiatives. It plays a crucial role in managing the country’s environmental efforts and climate change actions by mobilizing funds from both domestic and international sources.
This evaluation supports the Department of Environment, and by extension the Government of
Antigua and Barbuda, in enhancing the RLP under the SIRF Fund by assessing its
implementation, identifying lessons learned, and providing recommendations. It follows
international standards, employs a mixed-methods approach, and utilizes a Theory of Change to
evaluate outcomes and impacts.
