The IPDET workshops correspond to the stage two of our three stage process to enhance evaluation capacities. It is a 5 day stand-alone English-language training workshop (with simultaneous translation or translation of the presentations, when necessary) – Evaluating Mine Action – provided on a regional basis and using IPDET graduates from the region as facilitators. This intensive workshop is aimed at national mine action officials, representatives from local and international mine action operators, technical advisors/ programme officers nominated by the UN and other relevant agencies, and consultants working in the mine action field. The objectives of the workshop are to develop basic knowledge of evaluation concepts, processes and methods, as well as results-based management approaches, and to assist mine action officials and practitioners in assuming enhanced roles in the evaluation function (e.g. commissioning, designing and/or conducting evaluations). |
