This evaluation examines UNDP role and contribution to the attainment of electoral results. It seeks to determine the quality and added value of UNDP performance in strengthening electoral systems and processes. It also assesses how well UNDP positioned itself to address growing and changing demands for electoral support, and to address the challenges and opportunities to enhance the goals of democratic governance via strengthening electoral processes. The evaluation covers UNDP work on electoral assistance between 1990 and 2011 with a main focus on the past ten years when UNDP provided electoral assistance in 83 countries with a budget of approximately USD 2.9 billion. It concludes with a set of policy-relevant and forward-looking recommendations. The evaluation will support UNDP's future work by contributing to an understanding of how UNDP can provide assistance in a more effective and sustainable manner.

The United Nations Development Programme is the central network co-ordinating the work of the United Nations in over 160 developing countries. This 2006 book provides the first authoritative and accessible history of the Programme and its predecessors. Based on the findings of hundreds of interviews and archives in more than two dozen countries, Craig Murphy traces the history of the UNDP's organizational structure and mission, its relationship to the multilateral financial institutions, and the development of its doctrines. He argues that the principles on which the UNDP was founded remain as relevant in a world divided by terrorism as they were in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War, as are the fundamental problems that have plagued the Programme from its origin, including the opposition of traditionally isolationist forces in the industrialized world.
