Theme 2: Private Sector
Monday, March 10, 2025 - 15:15 to 16:45

15:15 - 16:45 | Theme 2: Private Sector

Chair: Mr Indran Naidoo, Director, IOE – IFAD
Co-Chair: Mr José Efraín Deras, Head, ODEI – CABEI

Presentations:

1. “Project Cluster Evaluation: IFAD’s support to Rural Entreprise Development: Key findings and lessons”, Mr Kouessi Maximin Kodjo, Lead Evaluation Officer, IOE – IFAD

In 2021, IOE conducted a Project Cluster Evaluation (PCE) to assess IFAD’s support for rural enterprise development in four countries. The evaluation found that many activities supported are pre-entrepreneurial, while the projects helped existing microenterprises to diversify income sources. They have had a limited impact on employment growth. Skill development support was effective, but productivity improvements and business management adoption were inconsistent. Access to finance remained a major barrier. Matching grants, though intended for first-time borrowers, were often accessed by established enterprises. The evaluation highlighted the need for clearer strategies, long-term support, improved financial access, and stronger institutional backing to ensure sustainable rural enterprise development.

2. “CABEI’s Experience with Private Sector: findings and exploring the way forward”, Mr Jorge Carballo, Ms Luisa Noyola and Ms Andrea Lupiac, Evaluation Analysts, ODEI -CABEI 

This presentation focuses on exploring CABEI’s alignment with the Good Practice Standards for Evaluation of Private Sector Investment Operations, particularly the private sector principle on “evaluation metrics and benchmarks”. We will examine how CABEI’s theory of change for private sector engagement drives development impact and discuss findings from its implementation. Key questions include: How can we improve adherence to these standards? What lessons can inform enhancements to the GPS to better address emerging challenges and opportunities?  aims to identify actionable insights and strategies to strengthen private sector engagement and contribute to broader development goals.

Attracting private sector investment while addressing economic and social challenges remains a key challenge for MDBs. CABEI’s experience highlights the importance of tailored financial products, risk-sharing mechanisms, and supportive regulatory frameworks to engage private actors effectively. Evaluation plays a critical role in informing better strategies by assessing what works, identifying gaps, and demonstrating the development impact of private sector projects. By aligning with the Good Practice Standards for Evaluation of Private Sector Investment Operations, MDBs can enhance transparency, accountability, and learning, making private sector opportunities more attractive and impactful. This is central to the ECG agenda, ensuring MDBs contribute to sustainable and inclusive growth.

3. “Evaluating ADB's Private Sector Operations Strategic Approach and Results: Progress, Gaps, and Future Directions”, Mr Mark Leander Mendoza, Evaluation Officer, IED – ADB 

ADB’s private sector operations play a crucial role in addressing financing gaps in Asia and the Pacific, particularly in infrastructure, financial inclusion, and climate finance. This presentation evaluates ADB’s strategic approach, the effectiveness of its Private Sector Operations Plan (PSO Plan), and the challenges in scaling up non-sovereign operations (NSO).

While the PSO Plan provided a flexible framework, it lacked a clear theory of change and results framework, making it difficult to assess impact. Progress has been made in increasing private sector engagement, sectoral diversification, and cofinancing, but key gaps remain. NSO commitments grew modestly, but the 2024 target of one-third of ADB operations is unlikely to be met, and expansion in FCAS and SIDS has been limited. Additionally, business process delays, resource constraints, and unclear performance targets have hindered scale-up efforts.

To strengthen private sector operations, the evaluation recommends developing a revised PSO Plan with a clearer strategic focus, improving alignment with country-specific diagnostics, enhancing incentives for NSO expansion, and implementing business process reforms. These steps will ensure ADB’s private sector operations contribute more effectively to sustainable economic development in the region.

Discussion on the outcomes of the thematic sessions of day 

11/03/2025

09:00 to 10:30
Theme 3: Climate Change
Tuesday, March 11, 2025 - 09:00 to 10:30

9:00 – 10:30 | Theme 3: Climate Change
Chair: Mr Pablo Moreno, Director, IEO – IMF
Co-Chair: Ms Véronique Salze-Lozach, Chief Evaluator, IEvD – EBRD

Presentations:

1. “Evaluating support for climate in a changing environment: lessons from the EIB Group Climate Bank Roadmap evaluation” Ms Tania Rajadel, Evaluation Expert, EV – EIB

The EV-EIB will present the lessons learned, findings and recommendation from the Climate Bank Roadmap evaluation and the role of the Roadmap as a corporate document.

2. “Evaluation Perspectives: Insights on ADB’s Evolving Climate Change Landscape” – Ms Shimako Takahashi, Senior Evaluation Specialist, IED – ADB

This presentation explores the evolution of ADB’s climate strategies, financing, and operations over the past three years. In November 2024, the Independent Evaluation Department published the topical paper which provides an update on ADB’s support for climate action during 2021–2023, following the IED’s thematic evaluation in 2021 on ADB support for climate action during 2011–2020. The paper focuses on: (i) strategic and institutional shifts; (ii) ADB’s climate portfolio, including operations aligned with the Paris Agreement; and (iii) progress towards climate outcomes.

Since 2021, ADB has made significant progress in enhancing its strategic focus on climate at the corporate level and improving results frameworks at both country and project levels.  To truly become the climate bank of Asia and the Pacific region, ADB needs to focus beyond achieving climate financing targets to delivering climate outcomes and devote greater attention to fostering systematic institutional learning.

3. "Together?... at the Climate-Crisis Crossroads”, Ms Shireen El-Wahab, Principal Evaluator, IEvD- EBRD

The IEvD-EBRD presentation raises questions on how harmonised MDBs are in practice, when it comes to climate finance. The powerpoint illustrate what constitute green finance, and how tracking mitigation and adaptation finance work in practice. The slides also touch on how evaluation can play a role in moving the institution forward in this regard, and also towards impact more generally and underline the following issues:

  • To become more effective and efficient in delivery against its green objectives, the EBRD should better focus on its strengths while understanding its limitations ​
  • To enhance its impact, the EBRD should revisit how it operationalises “green systemic change” with a stronger focus on outcomes​
  • The EBRD should review its green incentive mechanism to maximize the potential of its GET finance ​
  • To enable a culture of green results, the EBRD should start focusing on disbursements rather than commitments. ​
  • To improve its own credibility, the EBRD should strengthen the use of data for GET performance management

4. “Evaluation on the IMF Work on Climate” – Mr Miguel de Las Casas, Evaluation Lead, IEO – IMF 

The IEO will present an overview of its ongoing evaluation of the work of the IMF on climate change and the challenges it is facing, both internally and from a broader political economy perspective.

Tuesday, March 11, 2025 - 11:00 to 12:30

11:00 - 12:30 | Theme 4: Good Practice Standards (GPS)

Chair: Ms Marialisa Motta, Director, OVE – IaDB
Co-Chair: Ms Sabine Bernabe, Vice President and DG, IEG – WB

Presentations:

1. “GPS Update: work plan following ECG December kick-off meeting”, Mr Jozef Vaessen, Evaluation Advisor, OVE – IaDB

The OVE-IaDB will present the roadmap to revise the GPS, what are the areas of agreement, the proposed steps for overall update process, the roles and responsibilities, and its timeline.

The questions for discussion will be:

  • Are there any additional points you would like to share regarding the purpose, scope, and format of the revised GPS?​
  • Are you in (broad) agreement with the process?​
  • How (and to what extent) should we involve representatives from Management and the Boards in the process? Should we involve other stakeholders in the process?

2. “Private sector evaluation standards: background and suggested way forward”, Mr Todor Dimitrov, Head of Evaluation, IE – BSTDB

The presentation outlines the background and some challenges of the evolving Good Practice Standards (GPS) on the evaluation of private sector operations, developed and published by the Evaluation Cooperation Group (ECG) in 2012, along with other standards. As these standards are expected to have a further 5th edition, the main goal is to highlight areas that need attention and improvement. Based on some lessons learned in implementing these standards, the suggestions for the way forward address the following issues:

- limitations, relativity and fluidity of terms/processes across ECG members

- relevance and barriers towards formal commitment to ECG/GPS

- possible alignment among the standards on Private and Public sectors, reflecting those on independence, noting the rationale for differentiation such as addressing market and institutional failures via additionality as well as demand-driven transactions

- scope and quality of self-evaluation and ex-ante indicators

- possible integration of the independence/credibility perspective within the standards, not taking all assumptions at face value, towards mitigating risks of sidelining and compromised separation of powers

- Anticipate and address current and potential blind spots, e.g. early/real time evaluations vs. self/monitoring within the independence context; sensitive/recovery operations, awareness and access to information and broader outreach/influence.

3. “Development effectiveness tools: Comparative Analysis”, Mrs Claudia Figueroa, Evaluation Specialist, OVE – IaDB

The presentation will compare project development effectiveness policies, guidelines, abd instruments across 5 institutions. IDB, IFAD, AfDB, ADB and WB.

Regarding the evaluability assessment at project design, all MDBs rely on theories of change and results framework, some also conduct availability assessment; while monitoring and project performance classification during classification vary across MDBs.

MDBs’ criteria for self-evaluation and validation are broadly similar but assessed differently.

Some take aways relevant for the GPS update:

  • The effectiveness-related dimensions covered in the self-evaluations and validations (SE&V) are not always reflected in project monitoring and problem classification frameworks
  • SE&V rely, largely, on an objectives-based approach: there is variation in which objectives are being considered: original, revised, or a combination
  • There is variation in the coverage of DAC criteria in SE&V
  • There is variation in the use of decision rules in SE&V with sometimes a more 'mechanistic' approach versus leaving room for judgment

Chair: Mr Indran Naidoo, Director, IOE – IFAD
Co-Chair: Ms Karen Rot-Munstermann, Evaluator General, IDEV – AfDB

Presentations:

1. “Effective Communication”, Mr Alexander Voccia, Senior Evaluation Communication & Knowledge Management Specialist, IOE – IFAD

The presentation will explain what constitutes effective communication at IOE/IFAD. The focus will be on the journey that has led IOE to revolutionize its strategic thinking and approach to communication over the past four years. The key elements of this approach are nested in the Office’s six communication goals. These include building engagement, fostering empathy, cultivating the audience base, feeding stakeholder’s information needs, capturing IOE’s media presence, and adding value to the Office’s evaluation work. 

2. “Unlocking Tacit Knowledge: Strengthening Institutional Memory in Evaluation” Ms Darlene Brady Christopher, Senior Knowledge and Learning Officer, IED – WB

This session will explore two internal knowledge management practices by the Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) that help address the challenges of retaining institutional knowledge and fostering continuous internal knowledge sharing among staff.

To mitigate knowledge loss, the IEG KM team conducts knowledge retention interviews for departing staff, following a structured process to capture critical insights, lessons learned, and practical experience before they leave. These interviews help preserve tacit knowledge—insights gained through experience that are often difficult to document—ensuring that valuable institutional memory remains accessible to the organization.

Additionally, IEG fosters ongoing knowledge exchange through an internal-facing community of practice for evaluators. This initiative provides a collaborative space for evaluators to discuss methodologies, share emerging findings, and reflect on challenges, strengthening institutional learning. By facilitating peer engagement and continuous dialogue, the community of practice enhances professional development and ensures that evaluation knowledge is not only retained but actively applied and expanded within the organization. 

3. “Turning Evidence into Action: The Role of Knowledge Management and Communication in Evaluation” – Ms Jacqueline Nyagahima, Principal Knowledge Management Officer, IDEV – AfDB

This presentation illustrates the critical relationship between knowledge management, communication, and the evaluation process. By exploring the integral roles these elements play throughout the evaluation cycle, we will show how a robust communication strategy and effective knowledge management practices can greatly enhance evaluation results. This leads to better decision-making, improved programs or policies, and ultimately greater success in achieving development outcomes. We will describe strategies that IDEV employs to enhance its evaluation processes, ensuring that the evaluative knowledge gained not only demonstrates accountability to the AfDB’s Board of Directors but also provides actionable insights that propel development interventions towards impact. Case studies will highlight implementation, emphasizing how evaluation units can leverage these strategies to improve decision-making, drive continuous learning, and foster program improvement.

4. “Strategic EKM Practices for Organizational Influence and Impact” – Ms Saleha Waseem, Principal Evaluation Specialist, IED – ADB

This presentation will be around strategies to amplify the influence and impact of evaluations within an organization. We'll begin by sharing some of IED’s recent strategies for effective engagement, highlighting successes and roadblocks, and outlining future directions. Our presentation will cover the three main areas of our Evaluation Knowledge Management (EKM) practices: 

1. Knowledge Generation: Including initiatives like EVA and others.

2. Communications: Strategies and tools used to disseminate knowledge.

3. Evaluation Capacity Development (ECD): Building and enhancing the capacity for effective evaluation.
