Mr. Moussa has a 22 years long working history in various development projects covering the entire Middle East and North Africa countries, the Mediterranean countries involved in the Euro-Med process, as well as significant parts of the African Continent.

Description
This cycle of conferences will demonstrate that -if appropriately selected, planned and used- evaluators and commissioners of evaluation have at their disposal some innovative technologies that can help understanding the effects of projects and programmes in hard-to-reach areas, including in fragile contexts.
During this last conference Ziad Moussa will guide us in a reflection on the new challenges that the use of these technologies in an increasing number of fragile areas pose to the traditional ethical standards of the evaluation profession.
Introduction: Mr Valentin Alvarez – DEVCO, Evaluation Manager, Unit 04 ‘Evaluation and Results’ Section 01 Monitoring, Evaluation and Results.
