Glocal Evaluation Week 2026 will take place from June 1 to 5, under the theme Evaluation, Evidence, and Trust in the Age of AI.
Glocal is an annual knowledge-sharing event convened by the Global Evaluation Initiative to bring together evaluation and development practitioners and enthusiasts from all over the world. The week features hundreds of online, in-person, and hybrid sessions exploring a wide range of evaluation topics. These sessions are voluntarily organized by individuals and organizations across different regions, creating a truly global exchange of ideas. Participants can register and join as many sessions as they like, free of charge.
Glocal Participants and event organizers include international organizations, national and subnational M&E bodies, government entities at various levels, decision-makers, evaluation commissioners, voluntary organizations for professional evaluation, academics, researchers, and students—all connecting to share, learn, and collaborate. By participating, attendees not only gain knowledge and connections but actively contribute to building the evaluation field itself.
