Consultant - Diagnostic review on the use of methodological approaches and evaluation methods in UN evaluations – Team Member- Req #575895
|
United States
|
|
| UNICEF’S evaluation function, along with the evaluation units of many other UN agencies, are a part of the United Nations Evaluation Group (UNEG), an interagency professional network that aims to promote, strengthen and advocate for a robust, influential, independent and credible evaluation function throughout the UN system. In the past few years, as a part of these efforts to understand and promote the use of evaluative methods, the UNEG Methods Working Group has developed a compendium of methods (Issue I and II) with illustrative examples and organized dedicated learning seminars. These
endeavors received very positive informal feedback, but they were not necessarily based on systematic assessment of methods currently used or misused by the UN evaluation community. We know relatively little of the extent to which standard social science methods and specific evaluative approaches were applied in UN evaluation practice- what are the common patterns in approaches used? what are some of the systematic issues related to the methodological approaches of UN evaluations?
In an effort to answer these questions, the UNEG Methods group seeks to hire consultant(s) who will carry out a diagnostic review of the different evaluation methods and approaches used across UN evaluation exercises. The overarching objective of the review will be to assess the prevalence, common patterns and trends in the use of standard social science methods (e.g., quantitative and qualitative) and specific evaluation approaches. This will provide ground for stimulating a dialogue on system-level changes required to improve quality, credibility, and utilization within individual UN agencies, funds and programmes.
