Hosted by the ESRI, this online event will present the findings from the report 'Review of international approaches to evaluating rural and community development investment and supports.'
In September 2019, the ESRI commenced a joint Research Programme with the Department of Rural and Community Development to help inform rural and community development policy. This report is the first output published under the Research Programme. Its aim is to identify international approaches to the evaluation of rural and community development activities.
Presentations will examine the international approaches for measurement and evaluation of projects with a rural and community development emphasis and monitoring and evaluation in the context of the range of programmes operated by the Department of Rural and Community Development.
