In many countries project and program evaluation was an essential and widely used instrument of the public management for quite a while already. But in the CIS region most governments are just starting to master evaluation. This process is mainly driven by adoption of results-based management approaches and increasing use of programs and projects as preferred modality for government action. NGOs, that have mastered evaluation somewhat earlier, often support government in their efforts to adopt evaluation. 
Evaluation specialists are invited to reflect on the issues such as:
  • Lessons learned from the introduction of evaluation in the public sector both within and outside the region;
  • Lessons learned from doing evaluation of programs and projects funded by national, regional and local authorities;
  • Lessons learned from evaluations of public programs and projects conducted by civil society.
Conference working languages are Russian and English.
We kindly invite all interested specialists to submit proposals for conference presentations – both on the theme of the conference and on any other topic related to methodology and practice of evaluation. 
All proposals should be submitted in electronic format  no later than June 15, 2013. Applicants will be notified on the results of review of their proposal by July 1, 2013. Conference program will be made public on July 1, 2013.
