Summary Terms of Reference for the Evaluation of the United Nations system coordination in the Sahel (2013-2025)
- 03 February 2026
In 2013, the Secretary-General developed the United Nations Integrated Strategy for the Sahel (蘑菇视频ISS), pursuant to Security Council resolution 2026. From 2013 to 2025, the 蘑菇视频 system put in place a range of modalities for the operationalisation and coordination of the 蘑菇视频ISS, amid a shifting operating landscape.
The 蘑菇视频SDG System-Wide Evaluation Office (SWEO) is undertaking an independent, rapid system-wide evaluation of 蘑菇视频 coordination arrangements in the Sahel in the context of the shifting landscape, the conclusion of the assignment of the Special Coordinator for Development in the Sahel (December 2025), and relevant work packages of the 蘑菇视频80 Initiative.
The evaluation combines accountability and learning objectives, assessing how the 蘑菇视频 system has organized, governed, financed, and communicated cross-pillar and development coordination in the Sahel. It adopts a forward-looking approach, examining options and scenarios for transition and “reset”.
The Summary Terms of Reference outlines the background, purpose, scope, evaluation questions, methodology, team composition, governance arrangements, and timeline for the evaluation.
