Organizational assessment : a framework for improving performance

The inability of development agencies to understand and improve the performance of the organizations they support continues to impede progress in the developing world, even after a decade of reforms. Strengthening the institutions that receive those grants and loans — including government ministries and executing agencies as well as nongovernmental organizations — has become the key to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of development assistance.

Draft principles and guidelines for integrating ecosystem-based approaches to adaptation in project and policy design : a discussion document : policy brief

This paper is a summary of a longer and fully referenced document by the same authors. These draft guidelines were developed by this group at a workshop and meeting held in Costa Rica in June 2011 to initiate a more formal and iterative process for Ecosystem Based Adaptation Guidelines which can be discussed at various international and regional events. Clearly there is a need to do further work to develop ‘step by step’ guidance that can direct readers to appropriate sources of information and recommended tools.
