context:
The evaluator undertook interviews with 15 stakeholders in ILO headquarters (HQ), ILO country offices and National Project Coordinators, including 3 staff of the project team. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic at the time of the final evaluation, the evaluator undertook the final evaluation remotely, without field visits or meetings ILO stakeholders in Geneva. In the focus countries for this evaluation, eighth beneficiaries were reached in Ghana, seven beneficiaries in Cote d’Ivoire and four in Morocco.
description:
Increasing the number of evaluation questions and evaluation scope in project evaluations leads to more breadth of the exercise at the expense of the evaluation’s depth. Answering the “why” question suffers under such circumstances. Also, interview partners are overwhelmed by too many evaluation questions and interviews remain at the surface, despite extended interview times of up to 90 minutes.
