Who are we?

The EES was initiated in 1992 and registered in 1996 as a non-profit association. The first official board was elected in autumn 1995 and started its work in January 1996. Since the start of the Society, it has organized fourteen biennial conferences in as many European countries.

The mandate of the European Evaluation Society (EES) is to stimulate, guide and promote the theory, practice and utilization of evaluation in Europe and beyond.

Major activity is the Biennial Conference, and wider set of regular activities to members (eg Thematic Working Groups (TWGs), Learning Hub, Evidence and Evaluation/ Policy Forum…).
