Performance Evaluation

At the end of the four-year cycle, a performance evaluation of the CoE network was undertaken. It focused on the extent to which the network was able to achieve its objectives and strengthen the capacity of people in ITU member states.  The evaluation also reviewed the ability of the network to operate based on a self-sustainable model and highlighted best practices as well as challenges faced by the Centres.
