IDRC supports the development of innovative approaches to evaluation that respond to emerging project and program needs. Research on evaluation takes many forms including research projects (Active Evaluation Unit Projects and Closed Evaluation Unit Projects), the development of evaluation tools and methods, and scholarships for graduate students. IDRC also participates in discussion groups which serve as fora for learning, knowledge exchange, and the development of new ideas on evaluation.
