WIPO End of project Evaluation: Development of the Music Sector and New Economic Models of Music in Burkina Faso and All Other Countries of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU)
The main purpose of this evaluation is to assess the implementation of the project and its overall performance. This will feed into the decision-making process of the Committee on Development and Intellectual Property (CDIP). The main objective of this evaluation is two-fold: 1. Learning from experiences during project implementation: what worked well and what did not work well for the benefit of continued activities in the field. This includes assessing the project design framework, project management, including monitoring and reporting tools, as well as measuring and reporting on results achieved to date and assessing the likelihood of sustainability of results achieved. 2. Providing evidence-based evaluative information to support the CDIP’s decision-making process.
The project aimed at facilitating the use of legal and regulatory frameworks of copyright and related rights in the music industry, especially with regard to online use, and to strengthen the operational expertise and tools for the management of rights related to new business models of music in the digital environment.
The evaluation used KIIs with main stakeholders and document review as the main data collection instruments.
Evaluation of the Swiss Development Cooperation engagement on migration and forced displacement
The assignment focuses on the independent evaluation of SDC’s engagement in the critical area of migration and forced displacement over the period from 2017 to 2024. This evaluation will assess how effectively SDC has implemented its migration-related programs, aligned with Swiss IC Strategies of 2017-2020 and 2021-2024.
The objective is to ensure that the lessons learned inform future strategies, including the IC Strategy for 2025-2028, while contributing to Switzerland’s broader commitments to the Sustainable development Goals (SDGs), promoting institutional learning and providing evidence to the Swiss government and public.
