On 14 and 15 November 2023, the IOE Evaluation Advisory Panel (EAP) will hold its second Annual Workshop. The two-day event will take place at IFAD HQ, in Rome, and will pay special attention to following up on the areas for methodological development identified in 2022. In addition, panel members will provide advice to IOE on any other strategic item that may emerge from the workshop events.

The purposes of workshop are for EAP members to: (i) provide guidance to IOE of methodological nature; (ii) receive feedback from IFAD Management and from representatives of the Evaluation Committee on the evaluation function at IFAD; and (iii) based on the above, provide further strategic advice to IOE for further fine tuning of its approaches and strategic directions.
