Background
In Jan 2012, the Board of IDEAS approved a proposal to establish a Thematic Interest Group on Strategy-based Evaluation (SBE-ITIG)
SBE-ITIG’s mission is to promote all kinds of evaluation that are linked to strategy, and to develop both the concept and practices through mutual dialogue amongst practitioners from all schools of evaluation
EvalMENA.org (through the IDRC funded project “Mainstreaming Evaluation Theory and Practice in the MENA” has generously offered to host the first SBE-ITIG meeting

Establish shared understanding on the what Strategy-based Evaluation is all about
Pave the way towards reviewing global literature on Strategy-based Evaluation and lessons learnt
Initiate the discussion on how EvalMENA.org and SBE-ITIG would work together for the benefit of the concept and the region
Discuss steps needed and milestones towards the coming IDEAS assembly 2013

What is strategy?
In its simplest definition, strategy is about where an organization is headed and how it intends to get there.
It also can be defined as a forward-looking plan for a defined future.
Mintzberg defined it as systematic patterns of organizational behavior that determine:
- Overall direction,- How the organization’s work is carried out, and- Where it is carried out

What is evaluation?
Evaluation is the process of determining the merit, worth and value of things, and evaluations are the products of that process.
(Scriven, 1991, p. 1)

Accountability is heavily acknowledged, yet systematic learning and alignment is a major component.
Since it is usually performed by a third party, it does not necessarily support translating lessons learnt into management practices.

It is a systemic framework; it stems from the core strategic processes of organizations.
It is not only the nerve system of an organization but also its heart and brain.
Evaluation studies are vertical assessments. This does not support systematic recurrence very much.
