Mapping smarter decisions: How geospatial data is transforming evidence-informed governance in South Africa 🌍 The Geospatial Information Management Strategy (GIMS), developed by @DpmeOfficial, highlights the growing role of geospatial technologies, spatial data, and analytics in strengthening government planning, monitoring, and evaluation: online.fliphtml5.com/xdpr/rrib/. Designed to improve evidence-based planning and decision-making, GIMS also aims to strengthen spatial governance, enhance data integration, and support more coordinated and responsive public service delivery. For the evidence-informed decision-making (EIDM) community, particularly #AENmembers, the strategy demonstrates how innovative data systems can improve policy responsiveness, accountability, and developmental impact. The initiative is especially relevant for professionals working in monitoring and evaluation, governance, health systems, climate adaptation, urban planning, and public policy, as it reinforces the importance of integrating diverse forms of evidence into decision-making processes across Africa. #Accountability #AfricaLovesEvidence #AfricanEIDM #DataForDevelopment #DigitalGovernance #EvidenceUse #GeospatialData #InnovationInPolicy #PublicSectorInnovation #SpatialAnalytics

"The most useful shift..was not a specific platform or technique. It was a mindset. To use #AI critically, deliberately & with a clear understanding of its limitations. Because in #evaluation, credibility is everything & that still sits with the evaluator" twendembele.org/using-ai-in-ev…

🌍 AI in evaluation: Opportunity or oversimplification for evidence use? A recent reflection by @TwendeMnE challenges the evidence-informed decision-making (EIDM) community to think beyond the hype of AI and focus on what truly matters for evaluation and evidence use. As AI tools become more integrated into our workflows, they are undeniably improving speed and efficiency, supporting everything from data synthesis to report drafting. But as highlighted by the author, faster does not automatically mean better. ⚖️ For #AENmembers and the wider #EIDMcommunity, a few critical insights stand out: 🔹 What’s changing: AI is reshaping how quickly evaluation tasks can be completed. 🔹 What isn’t: The fundamentals—rigor, critical thinking, and contextual understanding—remain non-negotiable. 🔹 What matters most: • Credibility must not be sacrificed for convenience • Context cannot be automated; local knowledge remains essential. • Evidence must be translated into usable, decision-friendly formats. • AI should strengthen, not replace human expertise. 🚀 The real question for our community is not whether to use AI, but how to ensure it strengthens evidence uptake and real-world impact. 💬 A reflection for our #AENmembers: How can we intentionally use AI to make evidence more accessible, relevant, and actionable across African contexts, while maintaining the integrity that underpins #EIDM? 🔗 Read the full reflection: twendembele.org/using-ai-in-ev…. #AI #Evaluation #EvidenceUse #EvidenceToAction #ResearchImpact #AfricaEvaluation #KnowledgeTranslation

"Null results - when a study does not find significant impacts on chosen outcomes - can provide valuable insights for research & policies ... In #JPAL's null results blog series, we highlight randomized #evaluations that yielded null results in order to ...inform future research"
J-PAL North America@JPAL_NA

Results from well-designed #RCTs are important for informing policy making, regardless of the result. But null results can be difficult to act on. Learn more about how to think about designing & learning from studies with null results in this blog post: povertyactionlab.org/blog/11-8-24/n…
