We closed off #Evalweek #IDEV2026 with a call to action for more effective execution - and outcomes driven evaluations. Three things stayed with me: 1.⁠ ⁠Regional approaches matter. They are not just a good thing to try...they are at the core... 2.⁠ ⁠We need a people - driven approach...this is why design of regional initiatives must be integrated in character - infrastructure & trade; industry & mobility; human capital &... 3.⁠ ⁠Financing at scale is critical. Excited to see how we embrace these learnings as @AfDB_Group continues to invest in regional integration for the Africa we Want.

“We need to go beyond rigid theories of change, and try to work with the reality of multi-faceted contexts. This means having complexity represented in the design of evaluations.” – Fabrizio Felloni, #IFADeval Deputy Director, UNEG EvalWeek 2024

“IOE’s communication offerings present users with an immersive experience. Opportunities for real, tangible change are fast emerging, as the products facilitate greater uptake of IOE’s work.” – Dr Alexander Voccia, #IFADeval Communication Coordinator, UNEG EvalWeek 2024

“We need to move from evaluation phobia to evaluation embracing. To do so, we need to create psychologically safe environment where people feel free to express themselves, and in which we are empathetic listeners.” - Dr Indran Naidoo, #IFADeval Director, UNEG EvalWeek 2024
