This report documents the findings of an evaluability assessment commissioned by DFID’s Policy Division (with technical inputs from the Evidence and Evaluation Department). The evaluability assessment was carried out by theIDLgroup Ltd. between March and June 2012. It was undertaken in anticipation of proposed macro-evaluations of two DFID policy areas: empowerment and accountability (E&A) and the DFID Strategic Vision for Girls and Women (SVG&W). The purpose of the macro-evaluations is to assess and draw lessons from the wide variety of interventions being funded under each policy area.
