Archive the evaluation report and data (if appropriate)

There are benefits of an archive of evaluation data and/or reports in the way they can be used.

Such as:

• to provide examples of well-conducted and well-reported on evaluations
• to identify common weaknesses in evaluations which may indicate the need for specific guidance or training
• to synthesize data across different evaluations (to answer questions such AS “Do these types of interventions work?” or “For whom, in what ways and under what circumstances do they work?”)
• to share data (if appropriate) with other stakeholders such as to contribute to a larger data set on a particular theme or area of shared interest for further analysis
