Â鶹ÊÓƵ

The establishment of the Charter for Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s evaluation function follows the approval of the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Evaluation Policy 2022 by the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Executive Board in February 2022.

This Charter should be read in conjunction with the Evaluation Policy.

In line with Agenda 2030, the Evaluation Policy responds to expectations by member states and all Â鶹ÊÓƵ stakeholders for independent and credible evidence on its results, which generates knowledge to strengthen Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s contribution to achieving zero hunger.

The Evaluation Policy establishes the vision and strategic direction for embedding evaluation into Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s culture of and systems for accountability and learning. It sets the normative framework and standards, and specifies the model for Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s evaluation function, comprising centralized evaluation, demand-led decentralized evaluation, and impact evaluation, to be implemented as set out in the Corporate Evaluation Strategy.

Together, the Charter and the Evaluation Policy constitute the governance framework for Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s evaluation function. The Evaluation Charter sets out the institutional arrangements and associated authorities for operationalization of the Evaluation Policy and Corporate Evaluation Strategy that enable evaluation findings to be integrated into Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s policies, strategies, and programmes.
