Our Evaluations

The evaluation aims to perform an independent and comprehensive analysis and assessment of the Federal Government’s civil engagement in Afghanistan. To this end, it examines the respective engagement of the ministries involved (Federal Foreign Office – AA, Federal Ministry of the Interior and Community – BMI, Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development – BMZ) and how they interact.

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.

German cities, towns and districts are increasingly emerging as actors in German development policy. For instance, they champion fair trade and fair procurement or maintain partnerships with municipalities in the Global South. As a result, they are actively shaping “municipal development policy.” This evaluation examines the existing funding for municipal development policy in Germany. Much of the funding in this area is provided by BMZ and implemented by Engagement Global gGmbH and its Service Agency Communities in One World (SKEW). The purpose of this evaluation is to contribute to the strategic and operational development of this funding structure.

Many governmental and non-governmental organisations regularly evaluate the projects they implement in partner countries of the German development cooperation. In a completed meta-evaluation, DEval has analised the quality of these evaluations for selected organisations in the years 2016 to 2020.
