Description

Investments in building resilience must be evidence-based and targeted at people in need to ensure no one is left behind.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development underlines the importance of high-quality data generated at the national level to track progress toward development goals. This requires strong localized evaluation systems and the COVID-19 pandemic has only highlighted this.

This Masterclass shares progress and lessons learned to strengthen national evaluation systems, and how these systems are essential for countries to ‘build forward better’ and get back on track toward reaching the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Discover the importance of evaluation for achieving SDGs and making evidence-based decisions. Strengthen national evaluation systems for better progress tracking. Utilize evaluation to inform budgets, policies, and strategies for improved development outcomes. Overcome challenges in evaluation for effective decision-making and policy formulation.

Watch the 8 video lessons to hear from experts who contributed to the 2022 National Evaluation Capacities Conference in Turin. Learn from UN officials, government officials, civil society organizations, evaluation associations, and the global evaluation community at large.
