Extended Country Program Evaluations (XCPEs) evaluate the relevance, effectiveness, and sustainability of the IDB Groups support in a country. The IDB Group Office of Evaluation and Oversight (OVE) prepares XCPEs pursuant to a Country Product Protocol. XCPEs are independent evaluations that cover the two prior Bank country strategies and corresponding country program and aim to answer not only the question of what happened but also how and why.
The XCPE will evaluate the IDB Group's performance in Ecuador in the 2018-2025 period. The XCPE will cover the 2018-2021 and 2022-2025 country strategies, with a review period that runs from 27 June 2018 until 31 December 2024. This approach paper summarizes the main challenges of the country context, the country strategies, and the IDB Group program; and on that basis it defines the objectives, scope, evaluation questions, methodology, and work plan that will steer preparation of the XCPE.
