By 2035, we aim to support at least 250 policy processes for better jobs, gender equality and well-being.
ACED transforms African development landscapes by generating critical evidence and translating it into action. Our impact is felt through strengthened policies, empowered communities, and sustainable growth that prioritizes inclusivity and resilience. We track our impact by looking at how our work meaningfully contributes to changes in policy and practice both in terms of tangible development outcomes and systemic shift in the evidence to policy ecosystem.
Our learning agenda
Our monitoring and evaluation system goes beyond tracking outputs like the number of knowledge brief requests or resource downloads. It places greater emphasis on capturing meaningful changes in processes, including shifts in attitudes, practices, and institutional behaviors.
We have defined a number of questions and signals that indicate if we are on track to contribute positively to policy processes and outcomes.
