Event Description
Have you ever worked on a great evaluation and despaired that it didn’t get the prominence and re-use that it deserved? Or have you gone looking for existing evidence, and struggled to unearth the evaluations sitting on myriad different web sites? Us too! The Australian Centre for Evaluation (ACE) has partnered with the Analysis and Policy Observatory (APO) to create the Evaluation Library. This presentation will give you a tour of the library as well as the other excellent resources on the APO site. And since library is still in its infancy, we will provide steps on how you can get your evaluations added. We’ll also give a shout-out to similar initiatives elsewhere, such as the UK's Evaluation Registry
