520    This authoritative book presents the ever progressing 
       state of the art in evaluating climate change strategies 
       and action. It builds upon a selection of relevant and 
       practical papers and presentations given at the 2nd 
       International Conference on Evaluating Climate Change and 
       Development held in Washington DC in 2014 and includes 
       perspectives from independent evaluations of the major 
       international organisations supporting climate action in 
       developing countries, such as the Global Environment 
       Facility. The first section of the book sets the stage and
       provides an overview of independent evaluations, carried 
       out by multilateral development banks and development 
       organisations. Important topics include how policies and 
       organisations aim to achieve impact and how this is 
       measured, whether climate change is mainstreamed into 
       other development programs, and whether operations are 
       meeting the urgency of climate change challenges. The 
       following sections focus on evaluation of climate change 
       projects and policies as they link to development, from 
       the perspective of international organisations, NGO?s, 
       multilateral and bilateral aid agencies, and academia. The
       authors share methodologies or approaches used to better 
       understand problems and assess interventions, strategies 
       and policies. They also share challenges encountered, what
       was done to solve these and lessons learned from 
       evaluations. Collectively, the authors illustrate the 
       importance of evaluation in providing evidence to guide 
       policy change to informed decision-making.
