Abstract (English): The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) led a consultative process to develop a self-assessment tool for HIV monitoring and evaluation (M&E) leadership competencies. The tool seemed fit-for-purpose in M&E staff recruitment and professional development. The willingness to use the self-assessment was related to the pragmatic and reality-based nature of the tool. A competency-based approach to M&E training was well accepted by professionals working at national and servicedelivery levels. However, there is a need to update the HIV M&E competencies to adapt to specific M&E challenges in the broader context of aid effectiveness and to reflect a maturing evaluation profession.

Abstract (French): Le Programme Commun des Nations Unies sur le VIH/SIDA (ONUSIDA) a mené un processus de consultation pour élaborer un outil d'auto-évaluation pour les compétences en leadership en suivi et évaluation (S&É) du VIH. L'outil semble apte au but en recrutement du personnel et développement professionnel pour suivi et évaluation. La volonté d'utiliser l'auto-évaluation a été liée à la nature pragmatique et fondée sur la réalité de l'outil. Une approche axée sur les compétences en formation S&É a été bien reçue par les professionnels qui travaillent à des niveaux nationaux de prestation de services. Cependant, il est nécessaire d'actualiser les compétences VIH S&É pour s'adapter aux défis spécifiques au S&É dans le contexte plus large de l'efficacité de l'aide et pour refléter la maturation de la profession d'évaluation.
