Summary
In July 2023 ALNAP started consultations to update our guidance on the use of the OECD DAC criteria for the evaluation of humanitarian action.
After more than 15 years of effective use, ALNAP is updating its popular 2006 guidance on how to use the OECD DAC criteria for evaluating humanitarian action. The consultation aims to gather feedback from a broad spectrum of evaluators, humanitarians and other practitioners, from large agencies to small frontline actors, local community groups and first responders, working in diverse locations and different humanitarian contexts.
At this event, ALNAP presented the main findings of new research reviewing the use of the OECD DAC criteria for evaluating humanitarian action, which highlights key challenges and issues related to their application.
ALNAP also launched a global survey of humanitarian and evaluation practitioners, providing an opportunity to share your views on changes you would like to see in the evaluation guidance.
This event launched a series of planned in-person and online consultation events, including for francophone practitioners and those in the MENA and Asia-Pacific regions.
