This conference “Communicating evidence for sustainable development” is organized by Wageningen Centre for Development Innovation and takes place at the WUR campus on April 4 and 5, 2018. 

The conference aims to seek clarity in the role that communication can play in generating and using evidence for sustainable development. How can evidence generated by research, monitoring and evaluation, dialogue, et cetera be better used to influence decision making and transformational change? What are other factors at play when influencing transformational change processes and how can we deal with this? What role can communication play in all of these processes? And what does this mean for you as a development professional?

Register for the conference online.

  • What do we understand by “evidence”?
  • What are challenges and opportunities in the generation and use of evidence to influence sustainable development?
