Dear team,

              Evaluability assessment or evaluation readiness assessment have to do more with the organization capacity to monitor and evaluate an intervention. Assessing the following;
 
1. Organization M&E office
2. Organization M&E staffing 
3. Capacity of M&E staff (training and skills)
4. Organization M&E policy and framework 
5. Management M&E knowledge and use
There are 10 points here to look at.
 
Looking at the type of project whether it is humanitarian or developmental. I think all projects should be monitored and evaluated, but the question in evaluability assessment is: does the team have sufficient capacity and processes to deliver timely and useful evaluations?
 
Best regards
