Objectives-Based Evaluation (OBE) for impact investing

Bob Picciotto's picture 13th October 2020 by Bob Picciotto

Bob Picciotto is a former Director General of the Independent Evaluation Group which oversees evaluation in the International Finance Corporation, an agency dedicated to the promotion of private sector development in developing countries. In this guest blog, he argues that the ethical investment community has much to learn from the Objectives-Based Evaluation (OBE) approach used by the multilateral development banks: OBE rates social and environmental sustainability performance as well as economic and financial returns.

Self-evaluation using the framework

I've been looking for a site like this for years! 

Do you have any plans to convert the framework to a professional development continuum in the sense that evaluators, both novice and experts alike, would be able to evaluate their own ability to apply the framework?

Thanks,
Chad

The term "rubric" is often used in education to refer to a systematic way of setting out the expectations for students in terms of what would constitute poor, good and excellent performance.

Rubrics

A rubric is a framework that sets out criteria and standards for different levels of performance and describes what performance would look like at each level.  Rubrics have often been used in education for grading student work, and in recent years have been applied in evaluation to make transparent the process of synthesising evidence into an overall evaluative judgement.
