Evaluation Across Boundaries encourages evaluation to go beyond traditional limits—national borders, generations, disciplines, and methodological divides. This theme encourages openness to new ideas, welcoming diverse perspectives and collaboration across fields, sectors, and geographies.
It supports blending of evaluation models and techniques—qualitative and quantitative, academic and applied, traditional and emerging—to respond more effectively to today's world. This theme also values contributions of experiences and early-career evaluators alike, promoting a culture of mutual learning and innovation.
By crossing boundaries, evaluators can work together to address global challenges, adapt to changing contexts, and expand the reach and relevance of evaluation.
Evaluation Across Boundaries affirms our collective potential to advance the field and make a meaningful impact—wherever it's needed.
