In the past:
the best national evaluation systems were in the Global North
Majority of VOPEs were in the Global North.
Demand for evaluation was in the Global North.
Now and more and more in the future:
Several excellent national evaluation systems are in the Global South (i.e. Mexico, Colombia, Chile, South Africa, Morocco, Benin, Kenya, Uganda, Malaysia)
Majority of the existing 150+ VOPEs are in the Global South
Regional Parliamentarian Fora for evaluation now exist in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America (but not in Europe or in North America).
