  5. Malaysia Case Study Emerging Findings:National Evaluation System/Capacities for the SDGs • Key strengths • Evaluation systems have high level commitment. • Internal evaluation results are integrated into the government’s operational decision-making processes and budget planning through MOF and EPU. • Central agencies operate credible, accessible data systems and repositories for M&E. • Evaluation used to increase public accountability and transparency. • Increasing demand for evaluation across all stakeholders. • Key challenges • Mainstreaming evaluation practice in the modus operandi of the SDGs Council. • Expanding the availability of evaluation professionals with the capacity for cross-sector analysis. • Inclusive-minded evaluation, e.g., focus on participatory arrangements for evaluation: ‘No one left behind’. • Integrating datasets between agencies.

  6. Malaysia Case Study Emerging Findings: • Strong performance management approach and capacity across the public sector. • Well-developed institutional arrangements to carry out country-level evaluation; institutional arrangements for the SDGs are in place and coordinated with public sector structure. • Evaluations are used to measure progress and for learning. • Stakeholder engagement with evaluation is growing as civil society and private sector institutions are becoming more organized at the national level. • There is opportunity for increased coordination and synergy between SDGs and the Ministry & sub-national processes.

Concluding Remarks and Next Steps Enabling environment: • Regulations as tool to ensure that public programmes are evaluated regularly. • Introduction of arrangements in parliament for identifying and commissioning evaluations and disseminating results to decision makers. • Operationalize the SDG Council & Committees to accelerate evaluative learning for the SDGs. Institutional capacity: • Streamline the evaluation system & relevant capacity development, building links between government, private sector and CSO/NGO. • Improve data sharing through a new data portal for statistics and evaluation results. • Individual capacity: • Building professional capacity in evaluation at national and sub-national level, especially on integrated issues. • New approaches/focus of skills development on vulnerable individuals/communities (participatory evaluations).
