Overview
This is the seventh edition of the Annual Evaluation Synthesis Report (AESR). Its objective is to convey the critical learning points generated through evaluations (independent, funder-led, and self-evaluations) and Project Completion Reports (PCRs) undertaken during the previous year. In doing so, the AESR distils the emerging findings and their potential implications, and includes recommendations to senior management. The final chapter provides an overview of the status of the implementation of the evaluation recommendations (including those of previous AESRs) and an update on most recent management responses.
