Project Evaluations

"All things can be measured, but only if they are measured can they be controlled."

In our mid-term and final evaluations of bilateral, multilateral, and international NGO investments, we incorporate internationally recognized criteria, standards, and principles to ensure maximum effectiveness and transparency in our projects. These are the pillars that guide our evaluations:

SMART Evaluation Criteria

We use SMART indicators (Specific, Measurable, Attributable, Relevant, and Time-bound) to ensure evaluability and precise tracking of progress. We assess the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability of each project.

Planning, Budgeting, and Systematization

Each evaluation is carefully planned and budgeted, ensuring that the necessary resources are allocated to conduct thorough and effective assessments. We perform systematic and impartial evaluations to enhance the design and performance of projects and programs. These evaluations help promote accountability and continuous learning.

International Standards

Our evaluations adhere to principles of independence, credibility, utility, impartiality, transparency, integrity, participation, gender equality, and competence. This ensures that our evaluations are rigorous, objective, and respectful of all parties involved.

Participatory Approach and Gender Equality

We involve all stakeholders, including local communities, civil society organizations, and project partners, to ensure that all perspectives are considered and to foster shared ownership of the results. Additionally, we apply a gender-sensitive approach in all our evaluations, ensuring that sex-disaggregated data is collected and that the differentiated impacts on men and women are addressed.

The process of evaluating project implementation helps the team step back and examine their current position, where they want to go, how to get there, what resources are needed, who will implement, who will be responsible, and how all planned products and activities will be tracked. It is also an opportunity to identify improvement opportunities for future initiatives and share the lessons learned.
