Evaluation of multisectoral policies: review and lessons for lifelong learning - UNESCO Digital Library

The present review was commissioned to complement the handbook and the toolkit, with a sharper focus on evaluation. Preliminary research undertaken by UIL suggests that evaluation practices in the field of LLL are uneven or, more often, non-existent. For UIL, this is both a policy gap and a strategic opportunity.

While the handbook provides guidance to Member States on how to design and implement intersectoral and multisectoral policies in the context of LLL, UIL believes it is equally important to give Member States guidance on how to conceptualize the evaluation of such policies. In many jurisdictions, the practice of applying a multisectoral lens to policy design generally, and to LLL in particular, is an emerging area.
