“Evaluation in the networked society” is the theme for the European Evaluation Society‘s 10th Biennial Conference, being held this week in Helsinki. The conference will explore the implications of the new information environment and the advent of social networking without borders for evaluation. We’re excited to have the chance to explore these issues, which are at the heart of the BetterEvaluation project.

Patricia Rogers, Cristina Sette and Simon Hearn will be in Helsinki this week for the conference.  We will be making a presentation about  BetterEvaluation in a session on Evaluation Networks and Knowledge Sharing in Hall B on Thursday 4 October at 2pm.

If you’re in Helsinki, we’d love to hear about your experiences choosing and using different evaluation methods and strategies. And even if you’re not, you can follow discussions about issues being discussed at the conference by following our summary of key issues and examples from the conference on this blog and via twitter @BetterEval.
