The people behind Evalpartners

Dear EvalPartners Friends,

The beginning of preparations for Dublin (2014), and Sri Lanka (2015), has given me pause for reflection. In the fury of preparations, it is easy to lose sight of how much we have done, and how important it is to be working truly TOGETHER in this important movement of EvalPartners. So I put together this video to express my appreciation for the people of EvalPartners, and for what each and every one of you and those not in this email list…
