This independent evaluation assessed the overall Programme for Country Partnership (PCP) framework of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and its effectiveness in achieving expected results. The evaluation provided inputs for UNIDO management on the PCP framework and its potential as a model for accelerating inclusive and sustainable industrial development in its Member States. The objectives of the evaluation were to assess the adequacy of the PCP framework to UNIDO’s mandate, the different roles and tasks of UNIDO within PCPs, and the adequacy of the PCP framework for UNIDO’s programming at the country level. The evaluation covered the period from 2014 to 2022 and used standard UNIDO evaluation criteria as well as cross- cutting criteria such as gender equality and social and environmental dimensions to assess the validity and success of the PCP framework.
