By the beginning of the 21st century, a growing number of countries have included the evaluation function in their constitutions or mandated it via acts of parliament, putting in place institutional arrangements for evaluation to deliver evidence to inform policy-making. At the same time, evaluation capacity varies very significantly from country to country, which means that any initiative to strengthen national evaluation capacities should recognize existing capabilities and strengthen them, being sensitive to different levels of potential, rather than stimulating new and parallel capacities (cf. Segone et al. 2013).
