Title: The Tsunami Evaluation Coalition


1
The Tsunami Evaluation Coalition
2
The Tsunami Evaluation Coalition (TEC)
  • January 2005 Several agencies discussed with
    ALNAP how to coordinate a tsunami evaluation
    effort to maximise learning while minimising
    duplication.
  • February 2005 An ensuing meeting in Geneva led
    to the foundation of the TEC (guided by a CMG
    hosted by ALNAP).

3
What are the TECs objectives?
  • Level 1 Purpose
  • To promote a sector wide approach to evaluations
    of tsunami response in order to optimise sector
    wide learning.
  • Level 2 Purpose
  • To develop and validate procedures for future
    establishment of such a coordination mechanism.

4
Who is in it?
  • As with ALNAP the TEC includes
  • Bilateral Donors
  • UN agencies
  • NGOs and the Red Cross Movement

5
Type of participation?
  • First level
  • Individual agency evaluations (reports for
    synthesis).
  • Sharing ToRs and lessons (Online Forum
    www.alnap.org/tec).
  • Evaluation map who, what, where, when.
  • Second level
  • Working together on five joint thematic
    evaluations (cross-cutting for all).
  • Reducing number of agency evaluations (eg, OCHA,
    WHO, UNDP).
  • Commitment to follow up on findings.
  • Joint evaluations
  • Managing Thematic Evaluations
  • Steering Thematic Evaluations
  • Supporting Thematic Evaluations

6
Five joint thematic evaluations
  • Coordination (incl civil-military issues)
  • Impact on local and national capacities
  • Needs assessments
  • Linking relief, rehabilitation and development
    (LRRD)
  • Funding study
  • Each thematic evaluation is financed by a series
    of bilateral donors, UN agencies, and - in some
    cases - NGOs and the Red Cross.

  • Significant new learning and accountability
    initiative
  • New model multi-partner decentralised
    distributed.
  • Paradigm shift towards joint evaluations / value
    added.
  • Responsive to need to reduce evaluative burden.

10
  • How Jointly is Joint?

Hybrid multi-partner (Distributed evaluation) Participation is open to all stakeholders (classic). Implementation is decentralised distributed ie, devolved to different partners in the evaluations. (lead agency steering committee working group) Various levels of linkage between separate but parallel and inter-related evaluations. Learning is synthesised at the central level.
