ECB supports many joint evaluations. In 2010, four joint evaluations were undertaken with ECB support. As the ECB Project continues to learn from these experiences, the Joint Evaluation Guidelines are updated and revised based on that learning. Read our latest learning in the document above.

What is it?
Interagency activities such as joint evaluations and after action reviews at field office level have led to a greater understanding of accountability and impact measurement.
Why is it useful?
Working collaboratively increases peer accountability and transparency, and it helps agencies to learn more from one another, take a collective stance, and coordinate future responses.
Joint evaluations or after action reviews expose agencies' shortcoming to peer angecies and to even a broader audience. These evaluations provide valuable information on the relevance and impact of programs and demonstrate a commitment to transparency and accountability. They also provide a forum for sharing knowledge, resources and tools among peer agencies, and they help to solidify long term cooperative relationships between agencies. Joint evaluations have been conducted in Niger, Indonesia and Guatemala, among others.
These ECB-supported evaluations are available to the public, and are shared on the ECB website as well as on the Evalutation Database. Agencies also post many of their evaluations and after action reviews directly to this site
