IOM Evaluation Policy (2018)

Overview

Evaluation is a core function of the Office of the Inspector General (OIG), which is tasked to promote it, set the relevant policies and guidelines for the entire organization and conduct corporate evaluations. As a third line of defense, the central evaluation function ensures that IOM’s oversight role in project, strategy and policy management is effective, allowing the organization to perform with highest standards, to be fully accountable and to build institutional knowledge with relevant learning tools. IOM’s evaluation efforts are largely decentralized and the policy reflects it accordingly. Since 2015, Monitoring has been included in OIG mandate, a function which had no central repository in IOM. The two functions are separate but mutually beneficial, as illustrated by the concept of ‘M&E’.
