SIDW Survey Report: Development Evaluation in Practice
Report | December 15, 2013 | 34 pages
This survey report highlights that general methodological topics on development evaluation have the greatest appeal to survey respondents. Development professionals are interested in SID-W initiatives in the field, especially online groups, one-day works, and webinars. While just under half of development projects and proposals include both impact and performance evaluation regardless of overall project budgets, both types are likelier only when more resources are specifically committed to evaluations. Few projects include both baseline data collections and final evaluation, with evaluation budgets running below USAID guidelines half the time. Dissatisfaction among respondents is much more frequent when evaluation spending runs below USAID guidelines.
