The OPS8 evaluation provides a comprehensive assessment of the GEF’s interventions across various environmental domains. It examines the effectiveness, efficiency, and relevance of GEF’s strategies, including result-based management, country engagement, private sector involvement, agency cooperation, support for innovative approaches, and considerations for gender, inclusion, and fragility. The final report offers a robust evaluation framework that informs future GEF programming and policy decisions.
