Evaluating Humanitarian Assistance Programmes in Complex Emergencies - Good Practice Review 7

This review examines evaluation as a tool to improve accountability and performance in the operation of the international humanitarian aid system.

It seeks to improve the consistency and quality of evaluation methodologies, and enhance the accountability function of evaluation, contribute to institutionalising lessons learned, and identify better methods for monitoring performance of humanitarian aid operations.

The review is the written output of an OECD/DAC project initiated to identify and disseminate best practice in the evaluation of humanitarian assistance programmes.
