Relevance, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Impact and Sustainability: these five evaluation criteria – first articulated by the OECD/DAC in 1991 – have become a core part of evaluation policy and practice. Over the past two years, the DAC Evaluation Network and the wider evaluation community have taken stock of experiences with applying the criteria and worked to adapt the criteria to support better evaluations for learning and accountability. This session will present the current thinking on the criteria, including emerging definitions and principles for use, with reflections and critiques from different perspectives.
