Target group / Beneficiaries

Activities


The Peer Reviewer contributes to the quality of strategic evaluations by commenting in written form on the ToR of the evaluation, the suggested evaluation approach, as well as the draft reports (inception and evaluation reports) and data collection tools. Furthermore she/he will discuss and provide a written input to ADC’s After Action Review exercise in which the lessons learned from the evaluations process will be shared.
