The GEF IEO participated in the 13th Biennial Conference of the European Evaluation Society (EES) held in Thessaloniki, Greece, on October 1-5, 2018. The theme of the conference was on Evaluation for More Resilient Societies ( www.ees2018.eu). This was one of the largest EES conferences with about 750 registered participants, including evaluators and evaluation commissioners from governments, international organizations, academia and the private sector. Juha Uitto, IEO Director, made two distinct contributions through presentations and panels participation.
- Evaluation for the Anthropocene, makes a call for action for sustainability-ready evaluation and provides concrete advice on how to evaluate in coupled natural and human systems
- Building strong M&E systems for global partnership programs, organized by the World Bank
