2 June 2026
The Nairobi IMPACT workshop, hosted by WFP, the World Bank and IFPRI, builds on the momentum from three Global Impact Evaluation Forums and IFPRI policy seminars aiming to turn partners’ collective commitments into joint learning agendas that strengthen government systems and advance shared evidence priorities.
Social protection programmes, including cash, food & in‑kind transfers, school meals, food-for-work & assets and labour market programmes, are powerful tools for delivering sustainable, cost‑effective impact at scale. These programmes reach millions, mobilize major public resources and drive outcomes in nutrition, health, education, climate resilience, employment and economic inclusion.
Day 1 will be streamed online.
