I. BCODA SYNOPSIS (p.2)
BCODA will concentrate its Support to
Building Capacities of MoIC in:
 ODA Policy Development
 ODA Strategic Planning
 ODA Information / Data Management
 ODA Monitoring* &
 ODA Evaluation*
Because of its Limited Timeframe and Resources,
MoIC considers BCODA as a Catalyst for Capacity
Building and an Umbrella Project to Streamline
all MoIC’s Capacity Development Efforts
*Note: Monitoring & Evaluation of ODA related policies, plans, programmes and
projects. In particular, for MoIC, monitoring should address monitoring at all stages of
ODA cycle/processes. Similarly, evaluation should cover ex ante evaluation/
appraisal/selection, mid-term evaluation/on-going evaluation, end of programme/project
evaluation, and ex post evaluation/impact evaluation.
