  5. PARIS21 Light Evaluation Conclusions 2 PARIS21 Relevance and Effectiveness in general satisfactory, some nuances. The activities and work programme of PARIS21 are appropriate to the purpose of PARIS21. The programme has met stakeholders’ requests however to the extent possible given the number and diversity of the requests, that work plan and activities were consistent with the priorities of major stakeholders. PARIS21 has demonstrated a high adaptability to the new situation created by NSDS development.

  6. PARIS21 Light Evaluation Conclusions 3 Effectiveness : overall opinion that this has to be given also a positive mark, however, based on a wide diversity of remarks with strong and weaker nuances of this positive outcome.

  7. PARIS21 Light Evaluation Conclusions 4 The impact of actions is seen globally on the positive side; points where critical remarks were set are elements still to be appraised in more detail when this is feasible after a longer time period. Therefore, conclusions on the effectiveness are positive, however with a cautious approach on pinpointing the steps still to be made and possible future pitfalls.

  8. PARIS21 Light Evaluation: Recommendation 1 To consolidate this direction, the high priority on the NSDS as it has developed in the last years, and to make it more visible in the objectives of PARIS21, in such a form that it is recommended to expand the mandate of PARIS21, to better facilitate NSDS development.

  9. PARIS21 Light Evaluation: Recommendation 2 The emphasis on NSDS should not limit the advocacy work. The advocacy work should be considered an essential element in the NSDS and prioritised as being a part of it.

  10. PARIS21 Light Evaluation: Recommendation 3 To improve the conditions for better cooperation between the secretariat of PARIS21 and the involved partners. To reach a better level of cooperation the coordination role of PARIS21 in this context has to be expanded.

  11. PARIS21 Light Evaluation: Recommendation 4 To ask a small drafting group – focussed around the founding fathers of PARIS21 – to draft a new version of the mandate for the coming period and to provide advice on possible changes in the institutional setting of the PARIS21 secretariat.
