Scores cluster high, so position within the catalogue is often more telling than the number alone.
Transferability / replicability2/3
UNFPA's GBSS-prevention model (National Action Plan, health-sector guidelines, monitoring) has been replicated across several Caucasus and Asian countries under the same global UNFPA programme, though Armenia's specific protocol has not been independently verified as transplanted elsewhere.
Impact on gender equality1/1
Missing female births fell from a peak of 2,232 (2000) to 503 (2021), a measurable population-level impact documented by UNFPA and Armenia's National Statistical Committee.
Effectiveness1/1
The sex ratio at birth declined from 115 boys per 100 girls (2012) to 108.8 (2021), a sustained multi-year trend coinciding with the programme's implementation.
Efficiency0/1
No cost-per-outcome or budget-efficiency data for the National Action Plan was found in the public record.
Evaluated outcomes1/1
Outcomes are tracked annually through Armenia's official National Statistical Committee birth registries, independently corroborated by UNFPA regional reports.
Sustainability0/1
The ratio rebounded to 111 boys per 100 girls in early 2022 and stood at 110.7–109.9 in 2023–2024, and UNFPA itself describes the gains as fragile amid political and economic pressures.
Achievement / evidence1/1
A roughly 6-point drop in the sex ratio at birth over a decade is a concrete, government-verified achievement.
Gender-mainstreaming embedding1/1
The National Action Plan embeds GBSS prevention across health, education and local-government sectors, per UNFPA's sector-specific policy briefs.
Curator validation1/1
Findings are cross-validated across UNFPA Armenia, UNFPA EECA, Armenia's National Statistical Committee, and independent Caucasus media (JAMnews).
