The Independent Office of Evaluation of IFAD is an integral division in the organizational architecture of the Fund. However, our independence as an office is primarily derived by the fact that we report directly to the Executive Board of IFAD. The mandate of our office is to undertake evaluations of projects, country programmes such as for example the country programme evaluation in Nepal and corporate policies, with the aim of assessing results achieved, and generating lessons for further strengthening the performance of IFAD financed operations on the ground. In particular, the purpose of the Nepal country programme evaluation is therefore to provide building blocks that can assist Government, IFAD and other concerned partners in developing the next country strategy COSOP and projects financed by IFAD in the country. This is the second country programme evaluation done by the Independent Office of Evaluation in Nepal.The first one was completed in 1999. Given that our Office conducts only around 5 to 7 country program evaluations per year in all regions of the world, having conducted two country programme evaluations in this country may be considered as an indicator of the importance IFAD attributes to its partnership and overall collaboration with Nepal. The objective of the workshop today is to have an opportunity to discuss with you the main findings and recommendations from the Nepal country programme evaluation, and reflect on their implications for the future cooperation between IFAD and Nepal. In particular, the workshop will provide valuable inputs towards the preparation of the evaluation’s Agreement at Completion Point. The Agreement at Completion Point is a short document that will be formulated soon after the workshop, containing the main recommendations from the country programme evaluation that Government of Nepal and IFAD Management agreed to adopt and implement within specific timeframes. As per IFAD’s Evaluation Policy, the Agreement at Completion Point will be signed by the designated representative of the Government and IFAD’s Associate Vice President for Programmes or his representative.
