Professional Peer Review of the Evaluation Function of UNEP

The purpose of this Professional Peer Review is to provide an independent assessment of the functioning and quality of the UNEP evaluation function. It is primarily intended for use by UNEP in its quest for excellence and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development/Development Assistance Committee (OECD/DAC) Evaluation Network and the United Nations Evaluation Group (UNEG). More specifically, the peer review serves to enhance knowledge about, confidence in and use of evaluations by governing bodies and senior management of UNEP, improve evaluation policy and practice, build internal capacities and confidence of the evaluation function and support the office in its efforts to ensure greater acceptance and use of evaluation findings in the performance management system of the organization.
