Abstract
Growth in the use of evaluation within the United States (US) philanthropic sector since the late 1990s has been driven by an increasing focus on program outcomes and increased demands for evidenced-informed decision-making. With similar developments now apparent within the New Zealand philanthropic sector, it is timely to consider what has been learnt from the US experience and how this may inform local efforts to build evaluation use and capacity. Recent literature on the US experience is reviewed to identify drivers of US developments, progress made, issues arising, and lessons learnt. With attention to the current stage of capacity building within the New Zealand sector, implications and direction for local development are considered.
