Introduction

This evaluation was carried out by the Independent Evaluation Office of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to assess national-level UNDP contributions to anticorruption capacity development. The evaluation is part of the UNDP medium-term plan (DP/2014/5), approved by the UNDP Executive Board in January 2014.2 In approving the evaluation, the Executive Board recognized the importance of support to anti-corruption and accountability and transparency measures for equitable governance. Given the thrust to anticorruption and public accountability and transparency in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the evaluation will contribute to strategizing the UNDP anti-corruption programme.
