This "real life" introduction to evaluating progress on the 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is based on emerging country experience from North and South, as well as wider past learning on sustainable development evaluation. It is the second edition of a guidebook first published in 2020, now containing additional country experiences of SDG evaluations as well as two new chapters, one on initiating an SDG evaluation and one on using the results of SDG evaluations to inform and influence policy and decision-making as a path towards sustainable change. Rather than a one-size-fits-all manual, this guide seeks to support evaluation commissioners, managers and professional evaluators to create tailored plans and approaches to SDG evaluation. It argues that a successful evaluation must be both built around existing national context and underpinned by the principles of the 2030 Agenda.
