| description |
The analytical, conceptual, and
political framework of development is changing dramatically.
The new development agenda calls for broader understandings
of sectors, countries, development strategies, and policies.
It emphasizes learning and continuous feedback at all phases
of the development cycle. As the development agenda grows in
scope and complexity, development evaluation follows suit.
Development evaluator are moving away from traditional
implementation and output-focused evaluation models toward
results-based evaluation models, as the development
community calls for results and embraces the millennium
development goals. As the development community shifts its
focus away from projects in order to comprehensively address
country challenges, development evaluators are seeking
methods with which to assess results at the country, sector,
theme, policy, and even global levels. As the development
community recognizes the importance of not only a
comprehensive but also a coordinated approach to developing
country challenges and emphasizes partnerships, development
evaluators are increasingly engaged in joint evaluations.
These joint evaluations, while advantageous in many
respects, add to the complexity of development evaluation
(OECD 2006). Additionally, development evaluators
increasingly face the measurement challenge of determining
the performance of an individual development organization in
this broader context and of identifying its contribution.
This text is intended as a tool for use in building
development evaluation capacity. It aims to help development
evaluators think about and explore the new evaluation
architecture and especially to design and conduct
evaluations that focus on results in meeting the challenges
of development. |
