New Frontiers in Evaluation
April 24-25, 2006
Vienna, Austria

The conference “New Frontiers in Evaluation” will bring together policy makers, programme managers, evaluation experts from a variety of disciplines, and managers of science funds from around the world for two days of intensive exploration into current best practices--and beyond--in selection processes and evaluation methods geared towards the complexities of multiple levels of decision making and interdependent science program portfolios.

Five sets of questions (contained in the conference announcement) will be sharpened and made more precise in advance by an international advisory committee. Parallel to this effort, a call for papers will be issued and a background paper will be drawn up by the end of 2005 that will include the first approach to the questions of the conference. Registration will open from 1st September 2005.
