| Country: Bangladesh, Nicaragua, Tanzania, Vietnam, Zambia |
| Client: Norad |

| Danida, ADB, SADEV, SIDA, DFID and Norad have commissioned a joint evaluation of anti-corruption efforts in five countries: Vietnam, Bangladesh, Tanzania, Zambia and Nicaragua. The commissioning donors have paid considerable attention to anti-corruption in their development cooperation in recent years. Levels of corruption remain high in many countries, however, and there is a wish to find out how support in this area can become more effective. The primary audience for the evaluation is the agencies commissioning the work. Secondary audiences include interested parties in the case countries (national authorities, civil society, others), other countries and donor organisations. The purpose of the evaluation is to obtain knowledge regarding the relevance and effectiveness of support to reduce corruption, both through specific anti-corruption efforts and in other programmes undertaken from 2002 onwards. Lessons learned will be identified regarding what kind of donor support may work (for poor people and women in particular), what is less likely to work and what may harm national efforts against corruption. |

| Services provided: ITAD has been contracted by Norad (on behalf of the six agencies) to undertake this work in association with the Law and Development Partnership. Our approach will address corruption as a systemic issue and assess donor approach to corruption, looking at the full spectrum of interventions and aid delivery mechanisms. The team, led by Derek Poate, is composed of a core International Evaluation Team and a National Evaluation Team for each of the designated countries. The evaluation will be carried out over the period 2009 -2010. |
