Evaluation seminar November 7, 2025 : The space of policy evaluation in Spain. Master’s Degree in Evaluation of UCM Public Programs and Policies.
Pre-enrolment: www.magisterevaluacion.es
What do we mean by an evaluation ecosystem?
A space in which actors, institutions and resources interact where guiding discourses on the evaluation of public policies are generated. To be more precise and referring to the frameworks of advocacy coalitions, a subsystem of a public policy is defined as the set of actors who come from a variety of public and private organizations and who are actively involved in a policy issue or problem (Sabatier 1988: 131)
In the case of Spain, we are faced with a constellation of training programmes, professional associations, regulatory frameworks, consultancies and communities of practice that make up a diverse evaluation system, with history and transformative potential.
This seminar proposes to bring together actors from this space to think together about how to strengthen it, share visions on the roles that each actor plays and promote collaborations that contribute to an evaluation at the service of democracy and the rights of citizens.
During the day, we will listen to expert voices, share institutional learning, work in different interest groups and explore new forms of cooperation.
