AI offers new opportunities to address complex questions, improve workflows, and expand access to data and analysis. At the same time, its use raises important considerations related to ethics, bias, transparency, and human judgment. GEI works to support thoughtful and responsible engagement with AI by helping evaluators and institutions understand when and how these tools can add value—and when they should not be used.

GEI’s work on AI and digitalization focuses on strengthening evaluation systems and professional capability. Through practical guidance, learning, and collaboration across its network, GEI helps governments and practitioners navigate technological change in ways that reinforce methodological quality, ethical standards, and the effective use of evidence in decision‑making.
