| Title | Report on the Expert Group Meeting on Cluster and Network Development with Special Emphasis on Monitoring and Evaluation Issues |
| Abstract | UNIDO has been implementing technical cooperation projects based on a cluster and network development (CND) approach since the mid 1990s. UNIDO has adopted this approach as one of its strategies for contributing to the development of small and medium enterprises in developing countries, as a means of promoting sustainable and equitable growth. Projects implemented to date have adopted monitoring and evaluation (M&E) systems and several have undertaken evaluations, both internally and externally. The design and implementation of evaluation instruments that are able to provide objective and relevant results is an important priority of most donors and development agencies. In order to facilitate this, the Committee of Donor Agencies for Small Enterprise Development has set up a Working Group with the task of establishing common M&E guidelines. The Expert Group Meeting (EGM), held in Delhi from 9 - 14 December 2002, was the first step towards the development of these UNIDO guidelines. This report describes the outcome of the EGM. |
