C2026: Help us redefine evaluation in the face of the polycrisis

As we prepare for our 2026 National Conference, it's essential to highlight our foundational commitments that will thread through every aspect of the event. Our core values of Truth and Reconciliation, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, and Ecological Sustainability will form the bedrock of this conference.

Evaluators from across Canada and abroad will gather in Edmonton in May 2026 to strengthen their toolkit, learn new approaches, and establish new connections, leaving the conference more confident in their critical advisory role. This conference will be about learning, sharing experiences, recognizing diverse ways of knowing, and getting better as practitioners and as a profession at meeting the challenges of a complex world.

Do you have an idea for a presentation or workshop? The submission deadline for proposals is December 14, 2025. To learn more and submit your proposal, please visit our conference website

Don’t forget to mark your calendars to join us from May 24 to 27, 2026, in Edmonton, Alberta, as we explore how to produce an impactful evaluation in a complex world.
