Book excerpt: This is an independent country-level evaluation conducted in Benin by the Evaluation Office of United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The evaluation, Assessment of Development Results (ADR): Evaluation of UNDP Contribution - Benin, assesses the relevance and strategic positioning of UNDP support and its contributions to the country's development between 2004 and 2008. It examines UNDP interventions under the various thematic areas of the four-year country programme, with the aim of providing forward looking recommendations meant to assist the UNDP country office and its partners in the formulation of an action plan for the next programme cycle (2009-2013). The report examines the context under which UNDP operates in Benin, mainly with regard to economic and human development. In addition, it assesses the relevance of UNDP interventions to national priorities and the role of UNDP within the national development aid community. Benin faces the challenges of environmental depletion, a high population growth rate, a largely informal economy, and a weak and obsolete industrial and communication infrastructure. Recognizing such challenges, in 2006 Benin opted for fundamental changes that will transform it over the next 20 years. Through wide consultations and the participation of all constituents of its society, Benin acquired tools enabling it to face its future with more confidence. Major challenges threatening development have been identified, together with corresponding actions to address them. Although specific strategies still need to be defined in key sectors, the overall framework has been established. The international community, including United Nations (UN) agencies active in Benin, played an important role in accompanying Benin to this point of preparedness to engage in its new development agenda. The evaluation concluded that UNDP has made adequate use of its advantages, such as its perceived neutrality in the championing of delicate and sensitive macrolevel policy subjects, its acceptance by both donors and the government as a leader in their dialogue for development, and its credibility in resource mobilization. These assets have enabled UNDP to contribute positively to the two national objectives of poverty reduction and support to social dialogue. A key recommendation is for UNDP to prioritize sectors and interventions where its expertise is recognized, instead of sectors where the mobilization of funds alone is more feasible. This implies that UNDP should limit the number of its sectors of activity in order to have a critical mass of interventions that are complementary, synergetic and clearly focused on making a difference in the sector.

Book excerpt: "The evaluation examines the strategic relevance and positioning of UNDP support and its contributions to development results in Papua New Guinea from 2003 to 2011. The evaluation found that UNDP contributions have been important in terms of responding to national priorities and government needs. During the period covered by the evaluation, UNDP technical support to the government strengthened institutional development and enhanced policy formulation. Although some of the areas were not key government priorities, UNDP interventions in the areas of MDG planning and monitoring, governance, HIV and AIDS, conflict prevention and recovery, energy and environment and disaster risk management responded to key national needs and priorities. The evaluation also identified a number of areas in which UNDP needs to address specific challenges. These areas include ensuring national ownership and capacity development of all UNDP interventions, following a more systematic approach to programming and enhancing synergies among interventions. The Assessment recommends that UNDP should have a more holistic approach on macro development issues, such as furthering achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, gender equality, and environment"--Publisher's website.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Road to Results: Designing and Conducting Effective Development Evaluations' presents concepts and procedures for evaluation in a development context. It provides procedures and examples on how to set up a monitoring and evaluation system, how to conduct participatory evaluations and do social mapping, and how to construct a "rigorous" quasi-experimental design to answer an impact question. The text begins with the context of development evaluation and how it arrived where it is today. It then discusses current issues driving development evaluation, such as the Millennium Development Goals and the move from simple project evaluations to the broader understandings of complex evaluations. The topics of implementing 'Results-based Measurement and Evaluation' and constructing a 'Theory of Change' are emphasized throughout the text. Next, the authors take the reader down 'the road to results, ' presenting procedures for evaluating projects, programs, and policies by using a 'Design Matrix' to help map the process. This road includes: determining the overall approach, formulating questions, selecting designs, developing data collection instruments, choosing a sampling strategy, and planning data analysis for qualitative, quantitative, and mixed method evaluations. The book also includes discussions on conducting complex evaluations, how to manage evaluations, how to present results, and ethical behavior--including principles, standards, and guidelines. The final chapter discusses the future of development evaluation. This comprehensive text is an essential tool for those involved in development evaluation.
