The Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) was created in 1947 to confront the devastation in Europe left in the wake of the Second World War. With the breakup of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia in the 1990s, its membership expanded by one third, and it currently serves an economically varied group of 56 member States from Europe, North America and Asia.
The Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) examined the relevance and effectiveness of ECE and the extent to which it is fit for purpose to support member States in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The evaluation was conducted using surveys, interviews, on-site visits, case studies, direct observation, document reviews and secondary data analyses.
