CEP at CECAN Workshop on increasing the impact of policy evaluation

CEP participated in a workshop organised by CECAN to explore how evaluation practice can become more impactful in the future. The workshop ‘Increasing Impact of Policy Evaluation in Complex Settings – What Works?’ took place on 5 September 2017 in London. It sought to:

1. share recent experience on successful evaluation impact in complex nexus policy areas
2. share expertise in maximising the impact of evaluation in these policy settings
3. generate practical recommendations for policymakers, analysts and evaluators
4. generate ideas for focussing future R&D in this area
5. produce a policy note on how evaluation practice can become more impactful in future

CEP’s  Dr Clare Twigger-Ross discussed the impact of CEP’s evaluation of Defra’s Flood Resilience Community Pathfinder.
