Evaluation capacity development Evaluointikapasiteetin kehittäminen The Finnish government emphasises effectiveness impact and measurement of results in its development policy. Agenda203 and the SDGs provide an overall framework for development policy and cooperation and a basis for evaluation. Development evaluation is a 
fundamental element of the ministry?s results-based management system. High quality evaluations and utilization of their results require capacity from staff and the ministry and embassies as institutions. EVA-11 work programme includes several activities f
or evaluation capacity development: identification of evaluation capacity development needs design and implementation of training programmes updating of guidelines help desk services on evaluation development of evaluation practices. Capacity development m
ay also be done through participation in international initiatives or processes. The activities cover evaluation capacity development of ministry and embassy staff basic and further training of EVA-11 staff training of evaluators. Agenda 2030 requires stro
nger coherence between policy fields and cooperation between the evaluation functions of different ministries. Capacity development is a means ti promote this cooperation. Hallituksen kehityspoliittiset linjaukset korostavat tuloksellisuutta vaikuttavuutta ja tulosten mittaamista. Agenda 2030 ja kestävän kehityksen tavoitteet ovat kehityspolitiikan ja - yhteistyön yleinen viitekehys ja siten myös evaluoinnin perusta. Age
nda 2030-evaluointi edellyttää entistä vahvempaa yhteistyötä eri politiikkalohkojen ja ministeriöiden evaluointitoiminnassa. Kapasiteetin kehittämistoimilla edistetään tätä yhteistyötä.Kehitysevaluointitoiminta on keskeinen osa tulosohjausta m
inisteriössä. Korkealaatuiset evaluoinnit erityisesti niiden tulosten entistä parempi hyödyntäminen edellyttävät henkilöstön osaamista ja instituutioiden kapasiteettia sekä Suomessa että edustustoissa. EVA-11:n työohjelmaan sisältyy useita ele
menttejä joiden tavoitteena on evaluointiosaamisen ja kapasiteetin kehittäminen sekä evaluointien tulosten parempi hyödyntäminen koko ulkoasiainhallinnossa. Näitä ovat kapasiteettitarpeiden kartoitus koulutusohjelmien suunnittelu ja toteutus ohjeist
ojen päivittäminen evaluointineuvonta toimintatapojen kehittäminen ja viestintä. Kapasiteetin kehittäminen voi myös tapahtua osallistumalla kv. tason aloitteisiin ja prosesseihin. Hankkeen määrärahasta katettavat toiminnot kattavat UM:n ja edustus

Institutional cooperation instrument: technical assistance consultancy Instituutioiden välisen kehitysyhteistyön instrumentin tukikonsultti The task of the Facilitation consultant is to support Finnish governmental institution with technical assistance in the planning implementation and monitoring of the Institutional Cooperation Instrument projects. Institutional Cooperation Instrument (ICI) 
has been launched in 2008 and several projects are on-going in regional departments of the MFA. ICI-projects are rather small and the planning and monitoring are work intensive. This project means outsourcing some administrative tasks so that the MFA has o
verall decision making responsibilities but the routine tasks are largely outsourced to the Facilitation Cönsultant. The project aims (impact) to improve the capacities of the partner country government agencies and (outcome) to advance the quality and ef
fectiveness of the ICI-projects. The strategy of the project is to use one consultant company to provide services to the MFA and to support the Finnish government agencies. Seurantakonsultin toimenkuva koostuu Instituutioiden välisen kehitysyhteistyön instrumenttia (IKI) hyödyntävien suomalaisten valtion virastojen ja laitosten kehittyvissä maissa toteuttamiin hankkeisiin annettavasta tukipalvelusta (tuki suunnittelulle 
toteutukseen ja seurantaan).  IKI lanseerattiin vuonna 2008. Tällä hetkellä  alueosastoilla on käynnissä ja suunnitteilla lukuisia hankkeita. IKI-hankkeet ovat suhteellisen pieniä ja niiden suunnittelu ja seuranta on työlästä. Tämä hanke edistä
ä hallintotehtävien ulkoistamista siten että ministeriölle jäävät keskeiset päätöksentekovastuut ja kokonaisvaltainen seuranta mutta muut rutiinimaiset hallinnolliset toimet on ulkoistettu mahdollisimman laajasti tukikonsultin tarjoamaksi tueksi.
 Hankkeen kautta voidaan vahvistaa kehitysmaiden virastojen kapasiteettia edistämällä IKI-hankkeiden laatua tuloksellisuutta ja vaikuttavuutta.  Hankkeen strategiana on käyttää kilpailutuksen kautta valittua konsulttiyritystä tarjoamaan hallinnollis
ia palveluita ministeriölle sekä tukemaan ja kouluttamaan suomalaisia hankkeita toteuttavia virastoja. Aiempi kokemus IKI-tukikonsultin käytöstä on ollut positiivista sekä suomalaisten virastojen että UM:n alueosastojen näkökulmasta. IKI-konsultin
 työhön käytetään max 375.000 ? vuosina 2022-24.

F.a: Women's Livelihood Empowerment (WLEP) 1. Project:11755 Women’s Livelihood Empowerment Project (WLEP)
2. Project area and Country: Delta region, Yangon region, Rakhine state in Myanmar 
3. Project justification: 
According to the census data in March 2016, almost 50% of the population aged 10
 years and over is employed in the agriculture, forestry and fishing sectors. The employment-to-population ratio is much higher for males at 81% than for females at 48%. In almost all states and regions, female unemployment rate is higher. The discrepancy 
was largest in the Rakhine State. Fewer job opportunities exist for women and they mostly work in the informal sector. Most women owned and managed businesses lack access to finance and other necessary inputs, and access to tailored capacity building initi
atives and on-going support. 
4. The main objective and the expected results:
Women’s Livelihood Empowerment Project (WLEP) will build on the lessons learnt from the previous “Project for Improving Women’s Livelihoods (PIWL)”, which was piloted in 
28 villages in Pyapon and Dedaye Townships in the Ayeyarwaddy Delta Region from 2014 to 2016. WLEP project will work with another 100 villages in 10 Townships. The project’s main objective is to promote improved and sustainable socio-economic livelihoods
 for the targeted women. This will be accomplished through sustainable IGA/small business development, enhancing the women’s skills in managing their own household and village development activities and increasing their participation in decision-making p
rocesses. The project will also facilitate linking the Women’s Groups up to urban markets. The key activities include entrepreneurship training, saving and credit scheme management training, learning visits to cooperatives, identifying and establishing u
rban-rural market linkages and facilitating access to financial assistance to establish businesses/income generation activities.

F.a: Skills training and employment promotion The school dropout and unemployment rates are very high among youth (between the ages of 17 to 35 years) in Bo – the second city in Sierra Leone. For example due to lack of finances poor and vulnerable youth is often not able to complete secondary educat
ion or enter institutions of higher learning. Providing access to quality technical and vocational education and training (TVET) is critical in offering “a second chance” for those with little formal education and often with poor literacy and life skil
ls. The main objective:Guided by the principle “from learning to earning”, the main objective of the project is to provide training in vocational skills that respond to needs of job markets and industries, and employability skills to youth who lack the
 level of skills and competencies required for accessing employment and who lack the knowledge of how to become self-employed by turning business ideas into bankable business plans. Provision of access to credit and business advisory services are part of t
he project.Expected results:As a result of vocational training (carpentry, masonry, tailoring and welding, hairdressing) and business and employability skills training, the employment and income of graduates from Youth Development Training Centre (YDTC) in
 Bo and from other TVET providers in Bo district has increased. Through partnership with the private sector the the training is demand-driven and meets occupational and competency standards. Policy and operational environment for TVET in Southern region de
veloped through cooperation and advocacy work with educational authorities and other TVET stakeholders.Right-holders/ beneficiaries: Vulnerable urban and peri-urban youthImplementing partner: Rehabilitation and Development Agency (RADA)
