The ILO Evaluation Office is conducting a high-level corporate evaluation on ILO strategy and actions on skills and lifelong learning (2022 – 26). The Thematic Expert will provide
subject-matter expertise to EVAL to strengthen the evaluation’s design, analysis, and reporting. This includes contributing with technical thematic advice at targeted instances, notably

technical validity and reliability of the evaluation findings, and conclusions, as well as the accuracy, consistency, and relevance of conclusions and recommendations within the area of
expertise, and review related sections of the evaluation report and executive summary to support the formulation of actionable, evidence-based recommendations.
