Warm thanks to the 320 speakers who have sent us some 220 proposals for the 2026 CES conference. Each proposal was reviewed by two credentialed evaluators out of a crew of 76 reviewers. Members of the Professional Activity Committee (PAC) considered the judgements of these reviewers and their own assessment to make decisions on which short presentations, storytelling sessions, panels, debates, expert tutorials, thematic breakfasts, and posters best fit in the program that will be offered from May 24 to 27, 2026, in Edmonton. A total of 167 proposals were accepted.
Emails were sent to speakers on Friday February 6 with the PAC decisions -- except for workshops that are still under consideration. If you have not received this email, please contact conference@evaluationcanada.ca to request this information.
We look forward to exchanging on the fantastic theme of "Impactful evaluation in a complex world".
