This report describes and compares the evaluation and monitoring capacities of five multilateral organisations supported by the Australian Aid Program: the World Bank (WB), the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and the World Food Programme (WFP). It indicates the degree to which AusAID can rely upon the organisations' self-assessments of performance to account for the effective use of Australian aid funds. It also recommends improvements in monitoring and evaluation activities, which Australia may pursue through its representatives on the governing bodies of the organisations. AusAID's evaluation and monitoring systems were under review during this study, after the Simons Review. They were compared with those of the five mulitlateral organisations. Measures are recommended, for AusAID to consider, which would improve its evaluation policies and approaches |
