This evaluation has focused on three sets of assessment criteria. The first set of criteria relates to how the different learning strategies that UNICEF has used have contributed to the mainstreaming process. The second set of criteria assesses whether these learning strategies were in line with the best practices outlined by the United Nations System Staff College (UNSSC) to facilitate the development of a learning culture that leads to improved management capacity and organizational performance. The third set relates to the actual impact of the learning strategies used on UNICEF’s performance and its capacity to plan for and respond to humanitarian crises.
