Our Mission

Our mission is to foster a culture of excellence and ethics in evaluation in the Pacific region by improving evaluation practices and methods, increasing evaluation use, promoting evaluation as a profession, and supporting the contribution of evaluation to the generation of theory and knowledge about effective human action. Our goals are to:

•     Promote the exchange of information by maintaining a website with information on    grant notices, contractual and/or collaborative opportunities, job openings, links to conferences and workshops, and other local evaluation news,
•     Promote communication and discussion among evaluators in the region by maintaining a listserv of our membership (similar to the listserv maintained by AEA’s Evaltalk),
•     Increase skills and knowledge by providing opportunities for professional development, e.g., conferences and workshops, and
•     Provide opportunities for networking and collaboration.

Association Profile
