Scoping Study: Donor Support for Disability-Inclusive Country-Led Evaluation Systems and Processes - Executive Summary

Abstract

This executive summary paper highlights: Disability from a rights perspective is still not well understood by many practitioners working within international development agencies; Experience of evaluating programmes from a disability inclusion perspective is still relatively scarce amongst mainstream evaluation practitioners; and DFID and other commissioners of research and evaluation need to be explicit about definitions and expectations in relation to disability inclusion when they commission studies and evaluations. It is also important to ensure that agencies leading these research studies and evaluations have demonstrable technical capacity in disability inclusive work. Scoping Study: Donor Support for Disability-Inclusive Country-Led Evaluation Systems and Processes is available.This paper was commissioned by the UK Department for International Development
