Established in October 2011, Albanian Society of Programme Evaluation (ASPE) has defined its mission
as contributing to the development of evaluation in Albania and promoting the use of evaluation in
public and private organizations. Its strategy for the institutionalization of evaluation in Albania is based
on the bottom up model from the local government to the central government. Having this vision, ASPE
has already successfully implemented three projects under the EvalPartners Initiative. The project
EvAlbania 1 implemented in 2012 as a pilot project under P2P EvalPartners initiative aimed to provide
advocacy and awareness on the importance of evaluation throughout all organizational levels in Albania
- Central Government, Local Governments, Academia, and Civil Society. The project EvAlbania 2
implemented in 2014 aimed to create the conditions for establishment of evaluation departments in
Albanian municipalities. The Project EvALRO implemented in 2015 aimed to enhance professional
capacities and developing practices that recognize and promote cultural diversity and gender equality in
evaluation.
Romanian Society of Evaluators (RoSE) has brought a fruitful contribution in strengthening individual
capacities of evaluators by developing occupational standards, that were enforced in 2012 by the
Government, by providing education and training in evaluation and by developing codes of ethics and
practice based on Gender+ principles. As a member of EvalPartners’ Network since 2014, RoSE has
strengthened its institutional capacity and participated in the process of adoption of GEA. Since 2015,
RoSE members have joined EP initiatives (EvalGender+ and Professionalization). The National Study on
Gender+, carried out by RoSE by using IOCE methodology, identified the main problems that affect a
P2P2016 proposal from Albania-Romania-Kosovo
Page 1
sound evaluation capacity in Romania. GEA1is a very good guide on the way to address these problems
and P2P provides the best opportunity for appropriate intervention.
Kosovo Evaluation Network (KEN), as an informal network, was established under the umbrella of
LAPSI's jurisdiction and is mostly comprised of LAPSI networking professionals. LAPSI Members serve as
KEN Founding Members at the same time. Our experts possess a strong background in evaluation of
strategic policy documents at both central and local level (i.e. Kosovo National Development Strategy).
We possess an invaluable experience in providing economic research and analysis services to a number
of Kosovo Institutions as well as think tanks.
Considering the gap that exists concerning VOPE's in Kosovo, we at LAPSI mobilized our resources in
order to bring to life the first VOPE in Kosovo, KEN. Its utmost mission is to achieve the objectives set in
the Global Agenda 2020. We strongly believe in the development of evaluation mainstreaming and
promotion of professional education for evaluators, which would ultimately comply with LAPSI mission.
KEN is a newborn VOPE. Its main activities are planned in the 'Work plan for 2016-2017: Enlargement of
the network', which would be supported and closely monitored by LAPSI.

4. Project summary (300 words max) - Please also post the project summary on the IOCE
Forum when you will submit your project proposal. Project summary should include
description of project objectives and main activities
The general objective of the Project ARK2GEA - Transnational cooperation Albania-Romania-Kosovo
towards the implementation of Global Evaluation Agenda 2016-2020 is to enhance capacities of 3
National VOPEs of Balkan countries (ASPE of Albania, RoSE of Romania and KEN from Kosovo),
members of IOCE and EvalPartners Network to play strategic roles to enabling environment for
evaluation in their countries according to the vision for the future of evaluation profession established
by the Global Evaluation Agenda (GEA).
Following to the successful results in the EvALRO project2 the partnership has been extended by
including the national VOPE from Kosovo, new comer in P2P, to join efforts in implementing GEA to a
wider geographical area and provide sustainability of previous project results.
The Project specific objectives (SO) are:
1. Enhancing VOPEs’ strategic roles to strengthen enabling environments for evaluation within their
countries, contributing to improved national evaluation systems and policies according to GEA vision
2. Strengthening VOPEs’ institutional and operational capacities and to develop participatory
approaches with stakeholders concerned with evaluation according to GEA vision
3. Strengthening the individual capacities of evaluators in each country and promoting professional
education and occupational framework
All project activities have joint work and specific deliverables as contribution of each VOPE clearly
identified. They are structured as 4 work packages:
 the first three packages relate to a specific objective and are fully in line with GEA actions. A
special attention is given to ensure fully compliance with P2P requirements.
 the 4th work package concerns the project management activities including coordination among
partners, transnational meetings, communication plan, monitoring/evaluation and
dissemination of results.
5. Please provide a very concise situation analysis linking your proposed intervention to the
National Evaluation Capacity area you are trying to address through this proposal? (500
words max)
Albania: The evaluation function remains underdeveloped in Albania and its degree of
institutionalization within the various structures of the country is fragile. It is an environment where the
development of NEC is not a priority of government, and it is evident the lack of technical and financial
resources. Member active of EvalPartners since December 2012, the support of EvalPartners is basic to
develop an evaluation culture that corresponds to the specific characteristics of the country. Promoting
evaluation at all levels of government, Advocacy for evaluation, Strong and ongoing communication,
Professional development and teaching with universities, those are some of the activities that address
our daily working plan based on “No one left behind”. With the proposed project, ASPE is focused on
identifying the gaps in Albanian context of National Evaluation Capacity and will propose actions to
correct those gaps targeting the 4 dimensions of EvalAgenda 2020.
Romania: In 2007, the only research carried out on the state of evaluation and capacity of public
institutions in Romania at regional and local levels, identified the lack of legislation and institutional
support. Many hopes were related at that time to the adoption of the new National Strategy for
2
EvALRO Project – implemented in 2015-2016 by ASPE and RoSE in 2016-2016 under P2P
P2P2016 proposal from Albania-Romania-Kosovo

Evaluation (NSE) which, even drafted, was never enforced. Following to the draft NSE the main
weaknesses of Evaluation Capacity in Romania are related to “poor evaluation culture”, “lack of
professional evaluators”, “poor legal and institutional support for evaluation”, “weak methodological
guidance”, “lack of enforced performance indicators”. The ways to strengthening evaluation, agreed
with CSOs are to promote evaluation framework, to support professionalization and development of
“evaluation market” and to enforce practices and guides to evaluate projects, programs and policies.
Unfortunately, the current state of evaluation is not substantially improved and no updated strategy to
enhance evaluation capacity is enforced.
Kosovo: Considering the gap that existed with regards to VOPE's in Kosovo, we as Think tank LAPSI
mobilized our resources in order to bring to life the first VOPE in Kosovo – Kosovo Evaluation Network
(KEN). Its utmost mission is to achieve the objectives set in the Global Agenda 2020. Our partnership
strongly believes in the development of evaluation mainstreaming and promotion of professional
education for evaluators, which would ultimately comply with our network’s mission. Our main activities
are planned in the 'Work plan for 2016-2017: Enlargement of the network', which would be aiming to
support the advancement of the policy making and strategic planning in Kosovo. Even though the
capacities of the central government have increased and there has been co-ordination within the Prime
Minister’s Office and line ministries leading up to the adoption of National Development Strategy (NDS)
2016‑2021, the capacities are very limited to ensure a proper evaluation of sector strategies and in
particular the National Development Strategy economic reforms. In particular we aim to link our project
interventions to the capacity building in evaluations in Kosovo in particular setting sights to the
implementation of Kosovo Government Administrative Instruction (AI) on the procedures, criteria and
methodology for the preparation and approval of strategy documents and plans for their
implementation as well as AI on budget impact assessment for new government initiatives.
6. Can you draw a very simple theory of change explaining the project? (recommended but
not compulsory)
According to GEA the national evaluation capacity can be understood in terms of two variables: demand
(evaluation use) and supply (quality of evaluation). The project aims to support Partner VOPEs to
achieve high capacity in both supply and demand, focused at the national level. It focuses on supporting
three levels of capacity-building: 1) the enabling environment, 2) institutional, and 3) individual plus
cross-cutting support on equity-focused, gender responsive evaluation.
The theory of change presented below summarizes the benefits of the proposed intervention:
