Abstract

Evaluation policies are being written across the philanthropic sector. These policies offer rules and principles that are intended to guide evaluation practice. However, it is unclear what has motivated the development of evaluation policies and what impact, if any, they have on evaluation practice. Through interviews with 10 evaluation directors at foundations that have written evaluation policies, we identify the intent of these policies and their perceived influence in the philanthropic sector. We conclude with suggestions for future research on evaluation policy.

期刊介绍： Evaluation and Program Planning is based on the principle that the techniques and methods of evaluation and planning transcend the boundaries of specific fields and that relevant contributions to these areas come from people representing many different positions, intellectual traditions, and interests. In order to further the development of evaluation and planning, we publish articles from the private and public sectors in a wide range of areas: organizational development and behavior, training, planning, human resource development, health and mental, social services, mental retardation, corrections, substance abuse, and education.
