Building bodies of impact evaluation evidence

This virtual roundtable will examine how to build global bodies of impact evaluation evidence, while still respecting the context-specific understanding of development. The roundtable explores methods to identify the impact of programmes on key outcomes locally, while enabling a global agency to identify broader lessons on the relationship between their interventions and SDG2. It contributes to a wider discussion on methodologies for coordinating multiple rigorous impact evaluations to build bodies of evidence that inform programming and policy both at the organizational and global level.

Expected results:
- Stronger awareness of the challenges associated with moving from local and country-specific evidence towards a global evidence base;
- Learning on the latest innovations in evaluation methodologies and approaches to coordinating portfolios of rigorous impact evaluation;
