Learning Lessons: Managing for Development Results at Asian Development Bank
Asian Development Bank | November 2011
Abstract
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) introduced the Managing for Development Results (MfDR) agenda in 1999 as a part of its commitment to enhance development effectiveness under the overarching goal of its Poverty Reduction Strategy. In 2003, ADB formally established the Results Management Unit to integrate results-based management into operations. More than a decade later, the move into the next phase of MfDR—monitoring and managing results on the ground to achieve development effectiveness—should be imminent. A special evaluation study on MfDR from ADB’s Independent Evaluation Department (IED) brings out key findings and recommendations that need to be addressed in this regard.
