This format provides an outline for gathering information and assessing NSOs. It has a number of possible applications, ranging from appraisals for funding decisions to internal NSO self-assessments.
It is designed for both comprehensive appraisals as well as mini evaluations that use a particular section of the format to analyze a specific aspect of an NSO. For funders interested in a full appraisal, this format will help assess:
- How well an NSO's mission fits a funder's strategic priorities;
- The degree to which an NSO is an efficient and well run organization;
- The quality of NSO services and their relevance to partners;
- An NSO's contribution to the broader microfinance industry.
