"findings of oversight bodies and evaluations will be used to create a learning organization."
IES revised the UNODC Evaluation Policy in 2022, considering inputs from UNODC Management, Staff and Member States. It now aligns with the Administrative Instruction on Evaluation in the UN Secretariat (ST/AI/2021/3) and the UNODC Strategy 2021-2025, which emphasize the importance of evaluation planning and use of evaluation results.
