The side event will:
- Showcase contextual and methodological insights and results from the GENDER Platform Evaluation and forthcoming GDI-Responsive Evaluation Guideline.
- Illustrate synergies between ex ante proposal reviews and process & performance evaluations in CGIAR.
- Cultivate a discourse about the practical application of evaluative learning in shaping the ongoing CGIAR portfolio review.
