Overview
During the period 2018-2021 covered by this evaluation, the SHS Sector produced more than 100 knowledge products, primarily in the form of research/discussion papers, guides/manuals, and handbooks. The evaluation gathered contrasting findings on the performance of the Sector’s knowledge production. While a range of SHS knowledge products were adequately positioned to inform global policies and agendas and respond to the Sector’s overall strategic objectives, as a whole, knowledge products appeared scattered. This was partially due to the absence of a common narrative for the Sector and an explicit strategy for its knowledge production.
