Abstract

Close
- Evaluation in contexts affected by conflict and fragility is politicaland complex and can exacerbate violence. In such unpredictable environments,understanding how change happens is challenging because different actors atlocal, national and international levels have varied interests and definitions ofwhat change is or may be. Reports on progress on the Millennium DevelopmentGoals (MDGs) show that these contexts lag in establishing robust monitoringand evaluation systems. Most examples of tools and resources available are from‘normal’ contexts and do not fully support identification of the multiple biasesat all levels during an evaluation exercise, including possible bias of the evaluator. In these contexts, collaboration with people on the ground is paramountto contextualize scenarios, tools and values in order to visualize what works ornot for evaluation in a particular setting. The authors combine in this chapterbackground research completed, a reflection of their own personal experience,and the rich discussions with global evaluation practitioners who have workedin some of the worst conflict-affected contexts. During the IDEAS’s GlobalAssembly in Prague, the authors conducted a one-day workshop on evaluation in fragile, conflict and violent contexts was attended by participants frommany countries representing a range of leading actors and organizations thatenriched this urgent topic.
