Guiding principles of evaluative activities
Guiding principles of evaluative activities
When developing TOR for reviews and evaluations, consider the guiding principles for NZAID evaluative activities.
- Partnership - work in partnership with development partners and other stakeholders to design and implement reviews or evaluations.
- Transparency and independence - ensure reviews and evaluations are transparent (open and understood by all partners), and independent (carried out in a way that avoids adverse effects of political or organisational influence).
- Participation - stakeholders involved at all stages of the review or evaluation [Reference: NZAID Evaluation Guidelines on Participatory Evaluation].
- Capacity building -organisational capacity to undertake reviews or evaluations is enhanced through stakeholder involvement in the review or evaluation process.
