Abstract
Institutional evaluations can contribute to the periodic review of the functionality of institutions and organizations. However, so far there is no clearly defined evaluation approach for institutional evaluations. Starting from a distinction between different types of organisation- or institution-related evaluations and analyses, this article contains conceptual considerations for the integration of a systemic evaluation approach in institutional evaluations. The possible implementation of a systemic approach in an institutional evaluation is illustrated by using the example of the institutional evaluation of Engagement Global conducted by the German Institute for Development Evaluation (DEval). A reflection on the challenges that arise in the implementation of this evaluation approach follows. The article ends with a call for increased evaluative attention to institutions and organisations.
