The purpose set for the Evaluation was to inform senior management of UNICEF and sponsoring agencies of the IRC's work and results achieved, with particular emphasis on the last three programme cycles (1997-1999, 2000-2002, current cycle 2003-2005) and to assess future potential and strategic orientations. It was hoped that the evaluation would allow decision-makers to consolidate the Centre's role and functions, within and beyond UNICEF; strengthen and expand IRC's partnerships and resource base; and contribute to organizational reflection within UNICEF and feeding into the next Medium-Term Strategic Plan (2006-2010).
The objectives of the evaluation of the IRC are to:
• Assess the organizational performance of the IRC in terms of its relevance, effectiveness, efficiency and financial viability; and
• Identify opportunities, challenges, and relevant changes in the external environment of UNICEF in general, and the IRC in particular, that may impact on the Centre's future and influences strategic orientations.
