Ghana Evaluation Week 2026
Theme
Strengthening Evidence Use for Inclusive Development: Bridging Policy, Practice, and Innovation
Organised with our partners
Where evidence meets decision-making
Ghana Evaluation Week brings together evaluators, policy makers, researchers, development partners, civil society and emerging professionals for three days of dialogue on how evaluation evidence can drive inclusive, accountable development in Ghana and across Africa.
Hosted at the Institute of Statistical, Social and Economic Research (ISSER), University of Ghana, the 2026 edition focuses on closing the gap between what we learn and what we do — connecting policy, practice and innovation.
