. The conference, Bridging the gap: evaluation to action, focuses on three main themes:
- Theme 1: Influencing policy & programmes
- Examining how evaluation has influenced decisions and outcomes, and what we can learn from barriers, context, and adaptive approaches in shaping policy and programmes.
- Theme 2: Building evaluation cultures
- Embedding evaluation into daily practice, from co-production and participatory and user-centred methods to the impact of technology, AI, ethics, and power on how evidence is valued and used.
- Theme 3: Communicating evaluation
- Facilitating the move from technical findings to meaningful action through timely communication, visual storytelling, and strategies that help stakeholders make sense of evidence.
