Title: | Designing an effective evaluation model for the South African Department of Agriculture | Contributor(s): | Madzivhandila, Tshilidzi Percy (author); Griffith, Garry (author) ; Fleming, Euan (author) | Publication Date: | 2008 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/9118 | Abstract: | Governments are under increasing pressure to deliver results. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency and relevance of the public service in implementing policies and programmes for social betterment. Without such evaluations, it is difficult to ensure that evidence is integrated into policy and used in practice due to lack of generalizability and learning. This paper focuses on (1) the knowledge that is relevant to understand evaluation influence, (2) the possible conceptual frameworks that enable understanding of the evaluation implementation process, (3) possible models of the process of organizational evaluation, and (4) the main ways of intervening to increase influence. The context for analysis is the South African Department of Agriculture. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | AARES 2008: 52nd Annual Conference of the Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society, Canberra, Australia, 5th - 8th February, 2008 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the 52nd Annual Conference of the Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society | Publisher: | Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society (AARES) | Place of Publication: | Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 140214 Public Economics- Publically Provided Goods 140202 Economic Development and Growth |
