This capacity is critical for processes of instigating and engaging with institutional reform, and important for enabling access to adaptation finance. Evaluation capacity building (ECB), which includes the teaching or promotion of evaluative thinking, is shaped by an organization’s culture of enquiry: how learning is valued, communication channels, mechanisms for engaging people in evaluation, and the influence of leadership in facilitating all of these.application/pdfenEVALUATIONRESULTS BASED MANAGEMENTOUTCOME MAPPINGCLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATIONAFRICAEVALUATION CAPACITY BUILDINGSynthesis Report
