17th Senior Fellowship Officers Meeting, IMO London, November 17-19 2008
The 17th Biennial Meeting of the Senior Fellowship Officers of the United Nations System coordinated and organized by the Technical Cooperation Management Services (TCMS) was held at the Headquarters of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in London, United Kingdom, from 17 to 19 November 2008. The main focus of the meeting was on the subject of "Evaluation and Impact Assessment of Fellowships" aimed at reaching consensus on a clear definition, purpose, methodology, and guidelines applicable to training and fellowships evaluation activity. The Meeting unanimously adopted the Contribution Analysis approach with an elaborated milestones pathway enabling the evaluation, as the platform for future implementation and evaluation of Training and Fellowship Capacity Development activities within the UN system. As is customary at the biennial sessions, the Meeting also facilitated in-depth exchange of views on substantive and administrative aspects of fellowships and other related technical cooperation training activities, in addition to reinforcing inter-agency harmonization of practices and procedures in fellowship administration and programme evaluation. The 17th Meeting of Senior Fellowships Officers requested UN/DESA to continue its inter-agency fellowship coordination role and to organize the 18th Meeting in 2010. |
