Our Evaluations

The aim of German development cooperation (DC) is to reduce negative social and environmental effects in global (textile) supply chains and to contribute to their long-term sustainability. The evaluation therefore examined the interplay of development cooperation instruments and measures. The evaluation was completed in 2023.

The BMZ has established reform partnerships with selected African countries with the aim of contributing to the implementation of the German Marshall Plan with Africa and the G20 Compact with Africa (CwA) initiative. The evaluation strives to assess the experiences up to now with six African countries and support the further conceptual design of the reform partnerships.

DEval is carrying out an evaluation synthesis of private sector engagement in development cooperation (DC). This involves systematically reappraising the existing evidence on the effectiveness of private sector engagement and deriving recommendations from it for future instruments and programmes in the thematic area.

Structured funds are designed to make it easier for private investors to invest in development interventions. DEval investigated how successful the funds are in achieving this, and whether they generate the desired development impact while being financially sustainable at the same time. The evaluation was completed in 2020.
