Mission Statement
The independent Evaluation Branch at the Division for Oversight Services supports the Executive Director in rendering accounts to the public on the UNFPA contribution to development results in its areas of interventions. The independent Evaluation Branch also aims at promoting a culture of learning throughout the organization by providing knowledge on the UNFPA programmes and interventions. Have we reached our objectives? How well are we doing? Are we doing the right thing? Asking such questions and disseminating answers to the wide public is our mission.
The Evaluation Branch complies with the United Nations Evaluation Group (UNEG) Norms and Standards. These aim to facilitate system-wide collaboration on evaluation by ensuring that evaluation entities within the United Nations follow agreed-upon basic principles. UNEG Norms and Standards are intended to guide the establishment of the institutional framework, the management of the evaluation function, and the conduct and use of evaluations. They provide a reference for strengthening, professionalizing and improving the quality of evaluation in all United Nations organizations.
