Abstract

  In this paper co-authors present the global trends on Evaluation Capacity Development (ECD), Japan’s contribution to ECD through ODA, ECD in partner countries and their challenges. Based on these observations, they discuss ECD in SDGs era.

  The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development with its “leave no one behind” motto and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) call for ECD in developing countries and new evaluation methodologies such as participatory evaluation. These are opportunities as well as challenges for everyone concerned in evaluation. The needs for ECD in developing countries are huge and in order for them to take advantage of these opportunities, the support for ECD from donors including Japan are indispensable.
