 Inhoud

Covid-19 heeft de manier waarop we evalueren, zowel hier in België als in het buitenland, grondig gewijzigd. In dit online seminarie delen twee experts van internationale multilaterale organisaties (Internationale Organisatie voor Migratie en Internationale Arbeidsorganisatie) hun ervaringen met veranderend evaluatiebeleid, methodes en instrumenten. We reflecteren over hoe deze veranderingen de evaluatiepraktijk mogelijk kan wijzigen op langere termijn.

Dit online seminarie wordt georganiseerd door VEP, in samenwerking met HIVA-KU Leuven en IOB (UA). De voertaal van het seminarie is Engels.

Independence, quality and credibility are at the core of its work.  Prior to that, he was Deputy Regional Director for ILO in Asia and the Pacific based in Bangkok (2007 – 2010) and served in various positions including Director of ILO's International Programme on the elimination of child labour, IPEC (1992 - 2006).
