The Tsunami Evaluation Coalition (TEC)
January 2005: Several agencies discussed with ALNAP how to coordinate a tsunami evaluation effort to maximise learning while minimising duplication.
February 2005: An ensuing meeting in Geneva led to the foundation of the TEC (guided by a CMG; hosted by ALNAP).
19 Apr 2023
What are the TEC’s objectives?
Level 1 Purpose
To promote a sector wide approach to evaluations of tsunami response in order to optimise sector wide learning.
Level 2 Purpose
To develop and validate procedures for future establishment of such a coordination mechanism.

Who is in it?
As with ALNAP the TEC includes:
•Bilateral Donors•UN agencies•NGOs and the Red Cross Movement
19 Apr 2023
Type of participation?First level:
• Individual agency evaluations (reports for synthesis). • Sharing ToRs and lessons (Online Forum:
www.alnap.org/tec). • Evaluation map: who, what, where, when.
Second level:• Working together on five joint thematic evaluations
(cross-cutting for all). • Reducing number of agency evaluations (eg, OCHA, WHO,
UNDP).• Commitment to follow up on findings.

Five joint thematic evaluations
• Coordination (incl civil-military issues)• Impact on local and national capacities• Needs assessments• Linking relief, rehabilitation and
development (LRRD)• Funding study
Each thematic evaluation is financed by a series of bilateral donors, UN agencies, and - in some cases - NGOs and the Red Cross.

Significant new learning and accountability initiative:
• New model: multi-partner; decentralised & ‘distributed’.
• Paradigm shift towards joint evaluations / value added.
• Responsive to need to reduce evaluative burden.
19 Apr 2023
How Jointly is ‘Joint’?
Hybrid multi-partner
(Distributed evaluation)
Participation is open to all stakeholders (classic).
Implementation is decentralised & distributed – ie, devolved to different partners in the evaluations. (lead agency; steering committee; working group)
Various levels of linkage between separate but parallel and inter-related evaluations.
Learning is synthesised at the central level.
