Developmental Evaluation of UNICEF’s Work on Innovation for Children in Malaysia

This Terms of Reference (ToR) document outlines the purpose and scope of a Developmental Evaluation (DE) of UNICEF’s Work on Innovation for Children in Malaysia. The evaluation seeks to inject evaluative thinking and support adaptive learning among social innovators, social entrepreneurs, non-governmental organisations, private sector and government organisations that partner with UNICEF on innovation to achieve better results for children.

The DE is commissioned by UNICEF Malaysia, and it is expected to be carry out by an institution through an Embedded Evaluator (EE) from July through December 2018, with possible extension into 2019. The EE will not only be embedded in the programme team, but she will have a ‘voice’ in the meetings to inform UNICEF’s work on innovation and future directions and strategies. The EE will be supervised by the Evaluation Specialist at UNICEF Malaysia, in collaboration with the Innovation Specialist.
