About the Event
This Evaluation Conference shall be a moderated event to review and discuss the Contributions of Non-Profits and Non-State Actors to the Transformational Intentions of the Agenda 2023 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Developing Countries. Although not insufficiently acknowledged/appreciated, the continuing contributions of the Non-Profits including civil society organizations (CSOs), Communities, and other Non-State Actors (NSAs) as stakeholders in/to the field and practice of evaluation cannot be overemphasized.

a. building and sustaining partnerships and collaborations;
b. promoting Advocacy, communication/media, and social/resource mobilization (ACSM);
c. promoting and participating in research/evidence generation including reviews, assessment, oversight, conferences, seminars, symposia, and workshops;
d. providing and creating demand for Capacity Development/Training and Organizational Strengthening;
e. engaging in outreaches and community/population/people engagements; and
f. participating in monitoring and Evaluation (M&E).
Specifically, this virtual gLOCAL Conference shall report and discuss the monitored and evaluated roles and contributions of the civil society, communities, and non-state actors in advancing transformational change through Evaluation Capacity Development, M&E Use and Advocacy, M&E Approaches and Methods, Innovations in M&E, Monitoring, National Evaluation Systems, and The Future of M&E with focus on Culture, Context, and Collaboration.
Participants are expected to be drawn from the general public, especially from the 40,000-strong audience of AHOA’s Google Group, as well as the 2,400 registered members/partners of AHOA from 106 Countries.
