WIPO End of project Evaluation: Systematization of Statistical Data and the Design and Implementation of a Methodology for Developing Impact Assessments in the Use of the Intellectual Property System
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 aim of the project is to build capacity to enable those responsible for managing IP-related databases to translate the data these contain into the most reliable evidence possible to support IP-related empirical studies. To this end a methodology based on international best practices is to be developed and will be made available to all Member States. Participating countries: Bhutan, Cote d’Ivoire, El Salvador and Indonesia.
The evaluation uses KIIs with main stakeholders (English, French, Spanish) and document review as the main data collection instruments. It will finish with a presentation of the results of the evaluation at the CDIP conference in May 2026 in Geneva/Switzerland.

The OCPP is a UK-led programme funded through the UK’s £500 million Blue Planet Fund. The Blue Planet Fund is financed through the UK Official Development Assistance (ODA) budget and is supporting developing countries to protect the marine environment and reduce poverty.
The Blue Food project strategy will focus on a critical objective for a sustainable blue food industry in emerging economies:
scaling the equitable and sustainable growth of blue foods, unlocking investment opportunities for innovation and improving value chain efficiencies through waste reduction to increase global blue food
production and food security. This transformation, supported by the Ocean Panel and the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), is enacted through three key interventions that engage private sector
and innovation ecosystems, supported by robust science and aiming at delivering on DEFRA’s vision on poverty alleviation and gender equality.
