Abstract

This report presents an in-depth analysis of selected evaluation topics, and notes the importance of the IDRC’s efforts in searching for improved approaches to evaluation, which address the challenges inherent in evaluating research for development. Strengthening and professionalizing evaluation in the global South is an essential element in building strong research organizations that contribute to development. The Annual Corporate Evaluation Report (ACE) is presented to the Board of Governors each year in June. It presents highlights of evaluation across the Centre for the past year and documents evaluations completed and planned for the Centre.
