The “DAC Approach” to Evaluation
• Encourage evaluation as means to supportcritical thinking and put learning and accountability at the heart of the aid programme – not a straight jacket!
• Evaluation principles (independence, credibility, use) provide basic guiding concepts
• The DAC quality standards provide key benchmarks for the evaluation process and product
• Specific guidance and library of evaluation reports provide direction and examples
• Encourage joint, collaborative and country-led evaluation, including through capacity development
