Findings, Comments and Initial Recommendations from a Brief Consultation
A review of 429 reports issued by the International Federation in a one-year period was undertaken between 24 November and 12 December 2008 by an external consultant. The reference for the quality of the report was a framework that took into account adherence to guidelines, content and coherence. The review found that the majority of reports fell into a mid to high range of quality (73 per cent) based on a ranking scale and criteria developed by the consultant. Of the three broader categories, report content was of highest quality followed by adherence to guidelines and report coherence.
