Evaluation
Over the last two decades, evaluation has become a major issue for academics, governmental and public organizations and businesses throughout the world. This has, however, resulted in a body of knowledge scattered across disciplines, professions and countries.
To promote dialogue internationally and to build bridges within this expanding field, Evaluation: The International Journal of Theory, Research and Practice was launched in July 1995.

Evaluation and Program Planning
Evaluation and Program Planning is based on the principle that the techniques and methods of evaluation and planning transcend the boundaries of specific fields and that relevant contributions to these areas come from people representing many different positions, intellectual traditions, and interests. In order to further the development of evaluation and planning, we publish articles from the private and public sectors in a wide range of areas: organizational development and behavior, training, planning, human resource development, health and mental wellbeing, social services, corrections, substance abuse, and education. The primary goals of the journal are to assist evaluators and planners to improve the practice of their professions, to develop their skills and to improve their knowledge base.

The European Journal of Development Research: Impact Evaluation Initiative
One of the most hotly contested issues in international development is the practice and role of impact assessment. Proponents of impact assessment argue the need to discern those policy actions and programs that bring the greatest benefits to the poor, especially in the context of scarce development budgets. Amongst proponents there are active debates over the merits of quantitative versus more qualitative and participatory approaches to assessing impacts.
