WFP's Evaluation Policy

This Evaluation Policy (2008) consolidates and updates previous policies to align with the norms and standards for evaluation of the United Nations. It defines a framework that ensures the independence, credibility and utility of evaluation at WFP so that the dual purpose of accountability and learning is fulfilled. A peer review of WFP’s evaluation function recommended revision of the previous policy. This was accepted by WFP management and endorsed by the Executive Board in 2008.
