Better Together: Collaborative Thought and Action for Better Evaluation
DEval will participate in the EES-2024 Better Together Conference. Together with organizations from around the world we will explore how collaboration can lead to more effective, transformative evaluation and social change. This event offers a timely opportunity to leverage the diverse experience of the EES community to reframe evaluation and promote positive impact.
The world is in a state of polycrisis, facing urgent challenges like environmental degradation, social injustice, and economic instability. These complex issues require new approaches beyond siloed, linear thinking. Collaboration across disciplines, sectors, and perspectives is essential to develop innovative, inclusive solutions.
The 15th European Evaluation Biennial Conference 2024 will be an in-person event held at the Palacongressi di Rimini Congress Center in Rimini, Italy.
