Evaluation Capacity Development

ADB puts a premium on results and helps its developing member countries to manage for that. Strong national and sector monitoring and evaluation systems are necessary to assess efforts to reduce poverty, and to demonstrate results. They are an avenue for improving performance in terms of the quality, quantity, and targeting of goods and services. They also enrich the quality of ADB's own monitoring and evaluation.

Capacity Development for Monitoring and Evaluation


The Independent Evaluation Department has backed evaluation capacity development since 1990 to raise awareness of its role in promoting the transparency, accountability, results orientation, and effectiveness of management systems.

However, the changing development context of the Asia and Pacific region and the advent of learning organizations and knowledge-based economies have fed stocktaking exercises in IED that warrant placing a stronger accent on evaluation capacity development. But ADB must also plan better related outputs and outcomes and improve its ability to meet delivery challenges.
