Keynote: The Institutionalization of Evaluation in a Global Perspective
Chair(s): Reinhard Stockmann (Centrum für Evaluation - Universität des Saarlandes, Deutschland)
Presenter(s): Reinhard Stockmann (Centrum für Evaluation - Universität des Saarlandes, Deutschland)
In the keynote the findings of the Evaluation Project are presented. For this purpose, first, the research objectives and the theoretical and methodological approach underlying the project, the selection of the 50 countries analysed and the selection of the case study experts (authors) as well as the quality assurance mechanisms applied in order to achieve comparable results, are presented.
This is followed by a presentation of the findings on the institutionalization of evaluation in the political and social system and the degree of professionalization of evaluation in the countries studied. A double comparative analysis perspective is applied for this purpose. Firstly, the results of these three different systems that are presented are compared by country, followed by an intercontinental comparison. After that, the results of the Evaluation Globe Project are compared with the results of other similar studies. The overall analysis is used to finally address factors promoting and hindering the establishment and development of national M&E structures identified and future challenges.
