The GEC, hosted by Norad and convened by 3ie, gathers leading development institutions and evidence champions to reflect on recent global shifts and explore how evidence can guide more effective and equitable development. The programme includes opening remarks, the signing of new signatories, and a high-level panel discussion on the future of evidence-informed decision-making.
Join us for this session to:
- Explore how organisations are reforming systems, investing in evidence generation, and fostering cultures of learning and cost‑effectiveness.
- Engage with peers and senior leaders in interactive discussions about the future direction of evidence use in development.
- Learn about the GEC’s institutional reform agenda and how the TRIPS framework (Training, Resources, Incentives, Processes, Signals) is being applied across signatories.
