06/03/2022

Join a Twitter chat hosted by the EvalForward Community of Practice on 10 March at 15:00 to 15:30 CET / 09:00 ET on evaluation for climate action.

The chat will highlight the role of evaluation in providing evidence to climate change action and to talk about the key messages of our post COP26 dialogue held in December.

1. Evaluation can play a key role in climate change negotiations
2. Evaluation is the solution to impact washing: climate promises must be assessed for their true impact
3. To save the planet, decision makers need to draw on the best evidence
4. Common standards must be set to measure the progress of climate action

The Twitter chat will be hosted by @Eval_Forward on Twitter
