Abstract
The Uruguay Non-lending Technical
Assistance (UY NLTA) for Uruguay was undertaken at the
request of the Government of Uruguay's Ministry of
Social Development (MIDES). Following a devastating
financial and macroeconomic crisis in 2002, MIDES was
established with a view to coordinating social programs and
providing a safety net program for Uruguayans affected by
the crisis: the National Assistance Plan of Social Emergency
(PANES), which was established in 2005. The objectives of
the UY NLTA are to: (i) evaluate the impact of PANES social
emergency programs; (ii) inform a dialogue about the future
role of social emergency programs and of MIDES as the lead
authority responsible for the coordination and oversight of
social policy in Uruguay, and (iii) strengthen MIDES
capacity to assess, monitor and evaluate social policy in
Uruguay, with considerable weight on participatory
approaches to monitoring and evaluation.
