This Working Paper, commissioned by the UNEG SDG Working Group, provides evidence on, and analyzes the key issues, major strategic implications and urgent priorities facing UNEG and its membership in the context of the Agenda 2030.
The report makes far-reaching suggestions for UNEG’s consideration as it navigates, and helps shape, evaluation in the era of Agenda 2030. Together, they urge UNEG to seize the opportunities and address the challenges ahead, by leveraging its unique evaluation comparative advantage in the inter- agency system of the UN to help ensure that progress towards the aims set by the global community as embodied in the SDGs, is assessed and communicated through the conduct of independent, credible and useful evaluation worldwide.
