Research Series Issue 12 - An evidence-based assessment of IFAD’s end-of-project reporting

مايو 2017

Project Completion Reports (PCRs) are a critical tool for development organizations, both for accountability purposes, and as a means of learning from project experience to inform the design of future operations.

The report finds that most claims on results are not supported by evidence, and discusses implications for the objective measurement of development effectiveness.
