The Assessment of Development Results (ADR) covers the period from 1997to 2003. The evaluation found that UNDP made a significant contribution to Egypt’s decentralization process by proposing innovative projects that responded to social needs, by bringing other partners to participate in its “frontier” proposals to address politically sensitive issues, and by establishing a good relationship with the government. The evaluation concluded that UNDP is currently making a critical and positive contribution to Egypt’s long-term social and human development. |

The Assessment of Development Results (ADR) covers period 1997 to 2002. The evaluation found UNDP was able to stay the course throughout the difficult political situation prior to 1999 and to embark on innovative and participatory downstream activities in all 36 states of the federation, targeting the poorest of the poor. Some of these interventions have the potential for replication and scaling up to upstream policy levels. In addition, the National Human Development Reports of 1996, 1998 and 2000/2001 enhanced UNDP’s advocacy role on key development issues and helped to stimulate national debate on the country’s human development priorities.

2003 |
 |
The Assessment of Development Results (ADR) covers the period from 1997 to 2003. The evaluation concluded that UNDP’s focus on a combination of substantive and operational issues gave the organization a crucial place in national development, specifically with regard to ascertaining that the needs of the poor and vulnerable are maintained on the road towards EU accession. UNDP has been successful in building partnerships around local operational solutions, which bridged the macro and micro dimensions of national development. |

The Assessment of Development Results (ADR) covers the period from 1997 to 2003. The evaluation found UNDP has performed a creditable job in tapping some of the most strategic opportunities for assistance to Viet Nam. UNDP has managed to stay in step with the emergence of major development concerns in the country and has been a “first mover” in areas which have gained increasing attention on the part of other development partners. UNDP’s long presence in Vietnam has enabled it to establish a close relationship of trust with the government, to acquire deep knowledge of the country, and to make substantial contributions to key developments. |
2002 |

India Assessment of Development Results (ADR) covers the period of the first Country Cooperative Framework from 1997 to 2002. The evaluation found that UNDP India, along with its development partners within the government and the voluntary sector, has brought about a profound change in the character of its interventions, from building institutions to developing community-based, people-centred programmes. UNDP has been successful in achieving people’s participation in the process and developed strong partnerships with the relevant development actors and stakeholders, including civil society groups and women’s groups. |

The Assessment of Development Results (ADR) covers the period from 1997 to 2001. The evaluation found that UNDP’s nascent peace building activities have shown considerable potential in terms of strategic positioning and relevance, however, UNDP does not yet have a clear strategy to guide its work in the area of peace building. UNDP’s programme in Sudan has been compartmentalized and its results dispersed. Management issues had a substantial impact on the programme performance and UNDP’s reputation in the Country, and there is a need for the country office to build its internal capacities to deliver on its programmes and account for resources. The evaluation underscored the importance of partnership building with other donors and non-governmental organizations in creating opportunities for future dialogue on the peace process.
