1 Evaluation Author Stefano July name 2017 D Errico Date and Voluntary National Reviews Joint webinar: EVALSDGs - UNICEF Thursday, 13, 9:00-10:30a.m. EST 1
2 VNRs and Evaluation The 6 th EVALSDGs paper: an international collaboration The 6 th IIED briefing paper on evaluation and VNRs has been co-authored by 11 evaluation experts and led by Benoit Simon. The paper has analyzed all 22 Reviews submitted to the HLPF in 2016 The full series can be downloaded at: 2
3 Voluntary National Reviews Voluntary National Reviews, one piece of the jigsaw Every country has to present a Voluntary National Review once every four years to the High Level Political However the VNR to the HLPF is only one piece of the jigsaw Agenda 2030 encourages all countries to conduct regular reviews, assessments and evaluations to accelerate implementation of the SDGs 3
4 Voluntary National Reviews Voluntary National Reviews, the other pieces of the jigsaw The real change will happen only when reviews will be used locally to accelerate the implementation of the SDGs. Eventually, this means understanding national politics as much as fuelling movements for social and environmental action. Ultimately for evaluators this means brokering the values, views and needs of different stakeholders while new knowledge is generated. Source: 4
5 Evaluators and VNRs The role of evaluators in VNRs As evaluators, we can serve Agenda2030 by facilitating the co-generation of judgements of value. These must be based on varied sources of rigorous evidence. Equally, they must be based on processes that enable different stakeholders to interpret data and unpack the complexity of the real world. 5
6 Evaluators and VNRs The role of evaluators in VNRs Evaluators have a responsibility to challenge monopolies of problem definition, of issue formulation, of data control, of information utilisation. For example, the interaction of the SDGs often implies clashes between conservation policies and economic growth. Evaluators must mediate different interests in the processes of value definition. 6
7 Agenda 2030 and complexity Digesting complexity Agenda 2030 is a massive step forward because it recognises the inter-relationships between human, economic development and the environment. However, in its complexity, it can become a huge burden for national governments 7
8 Agenda 2030 and complexity Digesting complexity We need to find ways to digest the Agenda by developing simple messages around its key principles: - Country ownership - Universality - Sustainability - Partnerships, and - No one left behind 8
9 Findings of EVALSDGs IIED Briefing paper Evaluation: a missed opportunity in the first set of Voluntary National Reviews 9
10 Country ownership A few countries are taking ownership 22 pioneer countries presented reports on their respective VNR at the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF), and a further 44 countries are presenting their VNRs this year. 16 of the first 22 countries have already established a governance system for M&E at a government level. In 8 countries, interministerial agencies coordinate exchanges between ministries 10
11 Universality Agenda 2030 is everybody s concern! Though not yet However, some important states, including Australia, Canada, Russia, South Africa, UK and the USA, have not yet announced any plans for reporting on their VNRs. Some developed countries see Agenda 2030 mostly as related to their overseas development assistance. 11
12 Sustainability Adapting M&E systems without forgetting sustainability Very few of the 22 reporting countries are considering developing a specific M&E system for SDGs. Many are relying on systems already put in place for the MDGs. three situations: Countries adapting the framework of the MDGs, Countries with advanced frameworks on sustainable development, and Countries starting from scratch 12
13 Partnerships Partnerships to oversee the agenda at national level Many of the 22 countries have implemented Special Committees to consult, guide or oversee their SDGs national processes. These institutions often include civil society organisations and people from the private sector. 13
14 No one left behind Which data to understand equity and equality? Many countries noted that they lack data and need to improve their statistical system. The more data get disaggregated the more it becomes unreliable Only 2 countries reported use of qualitative data The answer to understand progresses on equity and equality, cannot come only from numbers and survey data. Made by Andrew a facebook user in Canada 14
15 Use of evaluation and M&E in VNRs in almost all national reports, it was not entirely clear how the proposed M&E system would support implementation of the 2030 Agenda. There appears to be very little awareness about just what evaluation is and how it could be used to support the 2030 Agenda Most of the Reviews lack detail about how evaluation could be used to inform the reporting processes 15
16 Recommendations 1. The evaluation community should convince senior politicians that evaluation is useful, and thus that national evaluation policies for the 2030 Agenda should be designed. 2. VNRs should make clear that macro indicators have limits. VNRs should also be clear on evaluation s role as an essential complement to indicators when judging the effects of policies and attributing these to implemented measures. 3. VNRs should complement the focus on quantitative indicators with more qualitative methodologies. This is an opportunity to include different data sources and tools for analysing and reporting progress. 16
17 Recommendations 4. Countries should organise evaluation processes using a four-year pattern that fits the HLPF s thematic cycle and focusing on three main aspects: a) Assessing causes and effects in complex and interdependent systems by looking at what has changed, for whom, how and why b) Paying attention to vulnerable populations and environments c) Assessing the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders through a co-responsibility lens, i.e. taking an approach that expects sustainable development strategies to be co-designed and co-implemented by all stakeholders (public, private, NGOs and citizens). 17
18 Recommendations 5. There should be a standard requirement for all countries to explain in their VNR what role their M&E system plays in reviewing progress towards the SDGs. UNEG could help develop this. 6. As the SDGS are strongly interlinked, it is crucial to both avoid counterproductive interactions between different objectives and targets (ie ensure internal coherence), and to reinforce synergies between stakeholders (external coherence). VNRs should strongly focus on building an interlinked picture at national and local levels.. 18
