The regional evaluation networks ReLAC, REDLACME and the global association of evaluators IDEAS are organizing a Joint Conference on “Evaluation for the Sustainable Development Goals” in Mexico, in Guanajuato from 4 to 8 December 2017. The event will be hosted and supported by the State Government of Guanajuato and a host of interested organizations.

The Conference has a special emphasis on transforming life through global and regional partnerships, with an emphasis on Latin America and the Caribbean. We aim to discuss and make progress on evaluation approaches, methodologies, institutional frameworks and learning from monitoring and evaluation evidence. The focus will be on the global commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals, highlighting the contribution of evaluation to fight poverty, promote equity and prosperity, protect the planet and build partnerships, free from conflict and in peace

IDEAS is pleased to invite you to this joint event, which will include our 2017 Global Assembly with our dedicated streams of work, as well as the Annual General Meeting of our members.
