Beyond a Leap of Faith : Evaluative Practices for Monitoring and Evaluating Inter-Religious Peacebuilding

This meeting will be an interactive discussion that will reflect on the experiences and challenges that inter-religious action for peacebuilding poses for monitoring and evaluation. We will assess some proposed practices we believe will improve the way inter-religious actions for peacebuilding can be monitored and evaluated and will assess their implications at the policy and programmatic levels, drawing on US and EU perspectives and examples of programming from around the world.
