The document discusses real-time evaluation (RTE) of humanitarian aid programs. It provides background on the origins and rationale of RTE, noting that early humanitarian evaluations were rushed and ignored local capacity. The document presents the research questions regarding the conceptual logic and application of RTE in practice. The methodology draws from multistage sampling and logic modeling to examine the theory and practice of RTE. Key findings include that RTE aims to provide timely, credible information for decision-making through participatory data collection and analysis during humanitarian responses. However, findings depend on informants' recollections and the theory does not always match the practical application of RTE.

What's more effective: a 'superhero' leader, a chain of command or a collaboration? ALNAP head of research and communications Paul Knox Clarke presents preliminary findings on a review of leadership styles in humanitarian action.
Cracks in the machine: is the humanitarian system fit for purpose? (Peter Wal...ALNAP
1. The humanitarian system has six glitches: poor starting models, lack of evidence-based analysis and response, overemphasis on compliance, avoidance of host state involvement, focus on emergencies over chronic crises, and seduction by donor funding models.
2. Evidence-based needs assessment and evaluation are underutilized due to beliefs that donors and leaders don't value it, it is not possible, and it increases accountability. However, sectors like education and shelter that do collect evidence see better outcomes.
3. While compliance with standards is important, it has also distorted practices by being too intrusive; balancing compliance and flexibility is needed.
This document discusses the role of data in evidence-based decision making for humanitarian aid. It outlines Development Initiatives' mission to empower people to make data-informed decisions to effectively allocate resources for poverty eradication. It also discusses a case study of humanitarian needs and actors in Northern Uganda, and activities that could improve humanitarian decision making, such as establishing community-based information systems and ensuring feedback loops. Key obstacles to evidence-based decision making are the low demand for data from local decision makers and low investment in information systems.
Whast goes up must come down: challenges of getting evidence back to the groundALNAP
1) The document discusses Save the Children's efforts to gather and utilize evidence from humanitarian responses to improve future interventions.
2) Evidence is gathered through monitoring, real-time reviews, and evaluations and aims to enable both single-loop learning around response improvements as well as double-loop learning regarding changes to implementation approaches.
3) However, challenges exist in distilling lessons from short-lived data and ensuring evidence informs decision-making. Opportunities lie in connecting available evidence, seeking trends over time, and leveraging Save the Children's development and humanitarian work.
Response analysis in food security crises: a 'road map'ALNAP
1) The document discusses response analysis in food security crises and examines whether improved situational analysis is driving response choice.
2) It outlines several factors that shape response choices, including situational analysis, feasibility analysis, appropriateness considerations, and the importance and influence of evidence.
3) Several response analysis tools are presented that help inform different decisions regarding response options such as cash transfers, vouchers, livelihood assistance, and nutrition products. However, the question remains if improved analysis and response options have led to better program responses in diverse contexts.
Using An Agency-Wide Measurement Approach to Understand Emergency ResponseALNAP
Mission Metrics is an initiative by Mercy Corps to develop agency-wide metrics to understand how effectively they are achieving their mission of alleviating suffering, poverty and oppression by helping people build secure, productive and just communities, with a focus on tracking metrics related to emergency response such as the number of people receiving emergency relief services and the percentage of programs implementing recovery elements within 90 days. The document outlines the proposed mission indicators and metrics for emergency response, presents sample data on beneficiaries of emergency services by sector, and discusses lessons learned and opportunities to expand the use of metrics and evidence.
Towards evidence-aware humanitarian practice: the role of donorsALNAP
DFID is working to promote evidence-aware humanitarian action by (1) increasing investment in primary research and evidence synthesis, (2) providing training and guidance materials to humanitarian practitioners, and (3) creating incentives for technical excellence and using evidence in decision-making. However, challenges remain around issues of knowledge and power, capacity, clearly defining incentives and what constitutes "good enough" evidence for humanitarian contexts.
Evidence Aid provides systematic reviews and evidence summaries to aid decision making in humanitarian crises and disasters. They conducted a survey that found most respondents feel systematic reviews are useful and practical for disaster response. While few trials have been done in disaster settings, it is possible to conduct them and summarize the evidence systematically. Evidence Aid aims to identify relevant systematic reviews and prioritize new reviews to help improve interventions and assess their impact.
The needle in the haystack: external evaluaitons (Saul Guerro, ACF)ALNAP
The document discusses how Action Against Hunger (ACF) improved their use of external evaluations. [1] Previously, evaluations had inconsistent impact and were seen as "audits" rather than opportunities. [2] ACF created an evaluation policy and guidelines framework to change perceptions and maximize contributions. [3] This included processes to identify and share best practices across missions to improve field programs.

Christian Aid reviewed four humanitarian evaluations using the BOND tool to assess quality of evidence. The evaluations were found to be low quality according to the tool's criteria of voice and inclusion, appropriateness, triangulation, contribution, and transparency. Specifically, evaluations lacked inclusion of marginalized groups, disaggregation of findings, exploration of intervention contribution, and transparency in methodology. Christian Aid observed limitations in the tool and plans to improve evaluation quality by clarifying consultant expectations, repeating the review process, and enhancing data collection during programs.
Evaluating impact of humanitarian action: a science or an art (Jo Puri, 3iE)ALNAP
This document discusses impact evaluations in humanitarian assistance. It notes that humanitarian interventions are complex to evaluate due to factors like selection bias, fragile states, concurrent interventions, and lack of baseline data. Some key points made include:
- Impact evaluations are needed to understand what works in humanitarian assistance and improve accountability.
- Methodologies must account for heterogeneity among affected populations and emergencies.
- The Pakistan 2005 earthquake response provides an example where impact evaluations could have better informed recovery efforts.
- Collecting baseline data immediately after emergencies and designing interventions for staged rollouts can help establish stronger counterfactuals for impact evaluations.
