dc.description.abstractIn 2008, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) introduced the Development Effectiveness Framework (DEF) to enhance the effectiveness of its products. This evaluation assesses the degree to which the DEF is achieving its objectives and identifies factors influencing its performance. Using mixed methods, including surveys, machine learning models, and causal inference models, the evaluation found that while the DEF established a structured system to measure project results, outcomes have fallen short of targets due to various factors. The evaluation reveals challenges in governance arrangements, implementation approach, and institutional culture. Key recommendations include ensuring proper incentives for prioritizing development results, defining clear stakeholder roles, enhancing strategic selectivity, and improving project management processes.
