"Effective implementation of SDGs in communities utilizing evaluation as a tool"
Program evaluation is a tool to produce the evidence that communities need to understand what is and isn’t working in solving their local problems. It is about inspiring ownership by the people. At the heart of localizing the ambitious global initiative envisioned under the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) framework, is ownership and participation by the people involved. This is why the SDGs are called a “people-centered” movement. We invite Dr. Deborah Rugg, one of the leading evaluators on the SDGs Evaluation in the United States, to deliver a lecture about Effective implementation of SDGs in communities utilizing evaluation as a tool.
