Abstract
These Guidelines intend to improve the use and uptake of evaluations across CGIAR, and to strengthen accountability and adaptive management underscored by a culture of learning, by:
- Clarifying roles and responsibilities of managers, commissioners, and evaluators.
- Providing a pathway for preparing effective and impactful Management Response
- Enhancing the quality, utility, and impact of evaluations and MRs.
- Promoting cost- and time-effective evaluation practices.
- Enabling managers to apply recommendations for informed decisions and strategic direction.
Ultimately, these Guidelines support a continuous learning culture, enabling CGIAR managers to use evaluative recommendations for informed decision-making and strategic direction.
