Members recognized that outcomes are not yet assessable, but highlighted how emergency MPAs help the World Bank deliver quickly and at scale. Management emphasized scalability, replicability, and the potential to support Global Challenge Programs by delivering across countries, aligned with the One-WBG approach. CODE noted preliminary indications that MPAs outperform comparators on continuity and learning, while requesting clarity on coherence, adaptability, tradeoffs among scale, speed, and complexity, partnership design, and co-financing to achieve transformative, sustainable impact.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nEarly-Stage Evaluation of the Multiphase Programmatic Approach  \nReport to the Board from the  \nCommittee on Development Effectiveness ∗  \nMeeting of October 16, 2024  \nThe Committee on Development Effectiveness (CODE) (“the Committee”) met to consider the Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) report entitled Early-Stage Evaluation of the Multiphase Programmatic Approach (CODE2024-0040) and the Draft Management Response (CODE2024-0042) .  \nThe Committee welcomed the findings and implications ofIEG’s early-stage evaluation of the Multiphase Programmatic Approach (MPA), which aim to help strengthen the effectiveness of the MPA. Members commended the WB’s efforts thus far on the implementation of MPAs and, while acknowledging it was too early to assess their outcomes, noted that emergency MPAs have enabled the Bank to deliver quickly and at scale. They also appreciated the timeliness ofthe evaluation, noting the growing MPA pipeline and the approach’s potential role in supporting Global Challenge Programs (GCPs). Management noted that the horizonal MPA, structured to deliver across countries, has the potential for scalability and replicability and to deliver GCPs objectives. Members also appreciated Management’s constructive response and commitment to address IEG’s suggestions, supporting the MPA’s intended outcomes-coherence of WB-financed interventions, continuity, learning and adaptability to adjust to changing circumstances and most importantly enhanced development impact and sustainability as well as improved resilience to risks and challenges.  \nWhile recognizing that IEG’s preliminary findings can only be seen as indicative and partial, members took note of the evaluation’s findings that MPAs do better than comparators on continuity and learning, and that there is no evidence yet to indicate MPAs are more coherent or adaptable than non-MPAs nor do they aim for higher level outcomes. They urged the WB to carefully consider the tradeoffs between scale, speed and complexity, and asked Management to elaborate on how MPAs can leverage the One-WBG approach, be anchored in the Country Partnership Frameworks (CPFs), and be better designed to leverage partnerships, including through fostering of higher co-financing with governments, development partners and the private sector to deliver transformative and scalable outcomes. Members underscored the importance of MPA outcomes to reflect the approach's emphasis on long-term development, adaptive management, and phased scaling to ensure projects meet their intended goals effectively and sustainably, while better informing the clients about the benefits and risks of MPAs and of providing training for task teams to handle the complexity of MPAs. They also expressed their interest in a full IEG evaluation when the MPA portfolio gains maturity.  \n∗ This report is not an approved
