UNEG Strategy 2014–2019

This strategy document from the United Nations Evaluation Group (UNEG) outlines the strategic pathway for all work conducted by UNEG for the period 2014 - 2019. Using an independent assessment of UNEG as the basis of its priorities, the strategy outlines the priorities of increasing partnerships with other professional evaluation networks and organisations, revising its governance and decision-making structures, and defining a strategy. 

Excerpt

"The Strategy sets out an ambitious agenda for concerted action and priority areas for 2014-2019. It is based on the normative values of the United Nations and supersedes the Principles of Working Together. It outlines how the Group will continue to support its members and partners as they strengthen the independence, credibility and use of evaluation and it outlines how UNEG will inform UN reform processes and cooperate with the global evaluation community. The Group has assessed the options available for moving forward. It recognizes that continuing the past approach risks not being able to provide the leadership on evaluation, while becoming more ambitious risks stretching thin the resources of a voluntary organization." (UNEG, 2014)
