UNGEI was launched in 2000 at the World Education Forum in Dakar with the
purpose of supporting the achievement of Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 3 on
promoting gender equality and empowering women. This evaluation takes place 10
years after UNGEI was established and has two main objectives, as noted in the
terms of reference:
“To establish a baseline against which progress towards achieving results can
be measured in the future” and To explore “the extent to which the UNGEI
partnership is achieving its intended
outcomes at country level, and the extent to which the global efforts are
contributing to the effectiveness and efficiency of the UNGEI partnership.”
The full terms of reference for the evaluation can be found in Annex 1.
The evaluation uses UNGEI’s three outcome areas as a foundation for examining
progress and establishing the baseline. The country and regional assessments
that were part of this evaluation
therefore sought to assess the progress in these outcome areas. Specifically,
this related to assessing the extent to which:
1. Policies that promote girls’ education and gender equality are in existence;
2. Good practices in facilitating girls’ education and gender equality are
known and institutionalized; and
3. UNGEI facilitates an effective partnership for girls’ education and gender
equality.
