Consultancy opportunity: Evaluation expert - Meta-analysis of UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) evaluations with a gender lens
08 Dec 2018
UNDP
Purpose
In general, the purpose of the meta-analysis is two-fold:
- Provide in-depth information on the current state of the integration of gender and human rights perspectives into UNDAF evaluations; and
- Synthesize the main recurring themes on UNCT’s contribution to the achievement of gender equality results.
Scope of the consultancy
The meta-analysis will be conducted by an external independent evaluator over a five-month period from January 2019 – May 2019. The primary method for this analysis is a desk review of UNDAF evaluations. The scope includes UNDAF evaluations completed between 2015 - 2018, to be able to have a broad evidence base and a more robust analysis. An initial search in the UNDP Evaluation Resource Centre (ERC) shows 48 UNDAF evaluations completed over the period 2015-2018. However, all possible avenues will be explored to identify all completed UNDAF evaluations to ensure balanced geographic distribution. This includes but is not limited to online search and contacts with RCOs and Regional Evaluation Groups.
Key outcomes of the meta-analysis
The overall process of the meta-analysis includes two major steps:
- assessment of the gender and human rights responsiveness of UNDAF evaluations; and
- a meta-analysis of UNDAF evaluations on gender equality results.
