On Friday 13 November 2020, Hon. Abbas Imbassou Ouattara, Vice Chairperson of the African Parliamentarians’ Network on Development Evaluation (APNODE), and Debazou Yantio, representing Independent Development Evaluation at the African Development Bank (IDEV), participated in the 2nd edition of the Ivorian Evaluation Morning hosted by the Réseau Ivoirien de Suivi et d’Evaluation (RISE).
Calls for governments, development partners, and the private sector to step-up efforts in achieving Africa’s transformative agenda is reverberating. In particular, the adoption of the African Union Agenda 2063 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the same year, 2015, have been widely praised for having the ‘special powers’ to take Africa to the promise land of zero poverty and hunger, highly skilled human capital, and better infrastructure.
