Description
High-level Evaluations (HLE) are governance-level evaluations that aim to generate insights into organizational-level performance within the context of the results-based management
system. The High-level evaluations in the ILO refer to the evaluation of policy outcomes, institutional issues, as well as selected Decent Work Country Programmes. Findings from HLEs
contribute to informed decision-making on policies and strategies, as well as accountability. Senior management and the Governing Body (GB) are involved in identifying priorities for
HLEs, determining the timing, and intended uses of each evaluation. The ILO Evaluation Office (EVAL), as an office with structural independence, is the custodian of the independence and
transparency of the evaluation process. EVAL conducts a minimum of three high-level evaluations every year, based on a 3-year rolling work plan of upcoming evaluations, endorsed by the
GB. In November 2025, the Governing Body approved an HLE on the ILO’s strategies and actions to promote decent work in Asia and the Pacific, to be conducted in 2026. The overarching
question of the HLE DWCP evaluations is whether ILO strategies and actions have effectively supported national constituents’ priorities and efforts to fill decent work gaps. Considering
the biennium planning approach of the ILO, the evaluation will consider the last two biennia, 2022-23 and 2024-25 in three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. To enhance
efficiency in the use of resources and ensure analytical coherence, the evaluation will be conducted in close collaboration with the High-Level Evaluations on Skills and Social
Protection, including the use of selected joint or complementary case studies where appropriate. This approach is intended to maximise synergies, reduce duplication of analytical effort,
and strengthen cross-thematic learning. Questions can be sent only until 16th February 14:00 hours Geneva time. For more details see the ToRs attached to this Rfx.
