New resource: Evaluation of Humanitarian Action Guide
ALNAP has recently released their Evaluation of Humanitarian Action Guide.
The guide was six years in the making and contains detailed advice and tips on evaluating humanitarian action. Even if your focus is not on evaluating humanitarian activities, Chapter 17 on Communicating and Reporting Findings and Results is well worth a read.
Addressing causation in humanitarian evaluation
A new discussion paper has been released by ALNAP entitled “Addressing causation in humanitarian evaluation: A discussion on designs, approaches and examples”.
The paper discusses possible evaluation designs and approaches that can help provide credible answers to these types of questions, using examples from Oxfam, WFP, UNHCR and NRC.
The paper cites an evaluation I worked on with NRC in the realm of advocacy evaluation.
