The value of a written report
• Reasons why an evaluation report is important
• It provides a written history of the project which can be referred to easily and quickly
• It serves as a record of why certain changes were made after the evaluation.
• It provides means to compare findings between this and the future evaluations you may conduct.
• It allows new staff who joined the project to learn quickly about what happened during the
implementation and the results.
• It enables you to give a written account or summary of the findings to people who may be
interested in the project.

• To get people’s attention time it right e.g. Use well known events like
International/African Children’s Day etc which generate use interest among the
public and may involve senior government people.
NB:
