Background
As evaluation became more attuned to the interconnected crises of our time, the need for forward-thinking and transformational approaches became urgent. This interactive session used the 3 Horizons framework to explore where the evaluation field was, envision a future where evaluative practice actively contributed to addressing the polycrisis, and identify existing initiatives and collaborations we could build on to get there. Participants thus helped shape collaborative work to take the evaluation field forward.
Objective: The wider evaluation community became aware of what had emerged from the 3HEI work, helped inform the direction for shifting the evaluation field, identified current transformational (H2+) initiatives, and expressed interest in collaborating to take this work forward.
To accommodate different time zones, the same session was held twice on 3 July and 4 July.
