The Evaluation of Humanitarian Action Guide supports evaluation specialists and non-specialists in every stage of an evaluation, from initial decision to final dissemination.

A pilot version of this Guide was first released in June 2013, following a three-year drafting process led by ALNAP, co-authors John Cosgrave and Margie Buchanan-Smith, and supported by an inter-agency advisory group.

15,000 EHA Guide downloads later, ALNAP has gathered feedback from more than 40 organisations participating in the pilot process who tested its content on the ground. We have now incorporated all the feedback into this final EHA Guide.

The launch event and panel discussion on the key issues in evaluation of humanitarian action is now available, as well as the bibliography of the Guide.
