Institutionalising evaluation: A review of international experience

3ie-DfID report - Bertha Briceno and Marie Gaarder - October 2009

Summary: This report compares experiences of institutionalizing government evaluation efforts through a discussion of the three leading models in Latin America – Mexico, Colombia and Chile – the non-centralized system of monitoring and evaluation adopted in South Africa, and the policylearning approach taken in China. Some developed country and international experiences are also briefly presented. It concludes that there is no unique model for strengthening and institutionalizing a monitoring and evaluation system. It all depends on strong political will to ensure that results are being used to improve performance. It also requires having a clear powerful stakeholder, such as the Congress, the Ministry of Finance, or the President to champion the process.
