"This guidance note elaborates the nine evaluation criteria introduced in the Adaptation Fund’s Evaluation Policy. The guidance note will be most helpful to those who are preparing, commissioning, managing, or conducting a Fund evaluative activity (Figure 1) contracted by a Fund Implementing Entity (IE) or the Technical Evaluation Reference Group of the Adaptation Fund (AF-TERG). The guidance note first examines what are and when to use the Fund’s evaluation criteria, and then examines each criterion individually with guidance for its operationalization." (Page 2)
