Foreword The COVID-19 pandemic presented an unprecedented test of the global community’s ability to respondswiftly, adapt to evolving needs, reallocate resources and co-ordinate effectively across borders andsectors. As governments, organisations and development actors worked to mitigate both the immediateeffectsof the pandemic and the broader socio-economic repercussions,the role of internationaldevelopment co-operation and humanitarian assistance in supporting national response efforts becamecrucial. In 2022, the participants of the COVID-19 Global Evaluation Coalition (hereafter referred to as the“Coalition”) launched the“Strategic Joint Evaluation of the Collective International Development andHumanitarian Assistance Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic”to take stock ofand learn fromthisresponse. Conducted under the auspices of the Coalition and led by the Organisation for EconomicCo-operationand Development’s (OECD) Development Co-operation Directorate, this evaluation seeks togenerate credible evidence, assess coherence and effectiveness, and draw lessons to strengthen futureresponses to global crises. TheCoalition was established in 2020 to provide actionable insights and foster accountability ininternational co-operation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Comprising more than 65 organisations,including evaluation units from OECD and non-OECD governments, UN agencies and multilateralinstitutions,–the Coalition leverages diverse experiences to create high-quality, timely evaluations and tofeed evidence into decision making in near real time. Its collective efforts enable learning acrossstakeholders and ensure that the global development community can better deliver on its commitments. Inline with the Coalition’s values of credibility, usefulness and partnership, this strategic joint evaluationbuilds and complements other evaluations and reviews conducted on COVID-19 responses over the pastfour years. It brings together multiple actors to address the gap in evaluative evidence around the overallresults of the collective pandemic response effort, offering a system-wide perspective. This provider case study on the Netherlands was preparedbyMiyabi Babasaki, Echica van KelleandMaritvan Zomeren (IOB) andMayanka Vij(OECD). We are deeply grateful for the expertise, insights, andresources provided by allthose involved in this collaborative undertaking, including theNetherlands andotherOECD member states that provided funding for the Coalition project and the strategic joint evaluation. Thisis one ofa set ofcase studies of international supportby individual providers,andof support inninepartnercountrystudies, which together form a major source of evidence for the evaluation, along with asynthesis of evaluations,anda study of the philanthropic response. The final overarching report will bepublished in 2025, along with supporting policy briefs and thematic summaries. The lessons emergingfrom this analysis–focused on the ways international partners work together andengage with local authorities and impacted communities–provide valuable insights to guide more relevant,coherent, effective and efficient international co-operation and, in turn,to support humanitarian andsustainable development progress.
