Mid-term evaluation is an assessment conducted during the mid-point of a project, program, or policy's implementation to evaluate its progress and effectiveness. Its uses include identifying gaps, determining what works and what doesn't, and providing recommendations to improve the project's outcomes. Mid-term evaluations help project managers to make necessary adjustments and to ensure that project goals are met within the allocated timeframe and budget. It also helps to ensure that resources are utilized effectively and efficiently to maximize the project's impact.
