The precursor to UN-Habitat, the United Nations Centre for Human Settlements, was created in 1977. In 2002 Habitat's mandate was strengthened and its status elevated to a full-fledged programme in the UN system (UN-Habitat). Following a risk assessment to identify Secretariat programme priorities, OIOS selected UN-Habitat for evaluation in 2013-2014 and decided to focus the assessment on the relevance, effectiveness and efficiency of UN-Habitat as a programme in 2012-2013, and of its approach to defining and managing toward its programme results over this period.The inception paper describes the organizational context against which OIOS has defined the terms of reference of the evaluation, and details evaluation questions and methodology.
