Final Evaluation of the UNDP Regional Programme for Latin America and the Caribbean (2022 to 2025)
An independent, mixed-methods evaluation for the United Nations Development Programme. In the data analysis section, the team disclosed using Evidano for structured content analysis of its qualitative data: interviews, open-ended survey responses, case study inputs, and document reviews.
Transparent, traceable, human-led
The publication reports that Evidano use "enhanced the reliability and transparency of the qualitative analysis by ensuring consistent data treatment and traceable coding logic," while helping to manage evaluator workload. Researchers kept full control of interpretation.
How Evidano fit the workflow
The publication reports that Evidano moved raw qualitative data toward structured, traceable analysis.
- 1Unstructured data in
Interviews, open-ended survey responses, case study inputs, and documents.
- 2Systematic coding and themes
Pattern recognition, theme clustering, and identification of emerging insights across sources.
- 3Focused tagging
Specific tagging of issues related to gender, inclusion, partnerships, and performance.
- 4Reviewed by human experts
Analytical judgments, synthesis, and interpretations stayed the sole responsibility of the evaluation team.
“Evidano enabled systematic coding and thematic categorization of extensive unstructured data.”
