The College is comprised of fully independent academic experts who are global leaders in their respective fields. Members of the College will be assigned to a thematic review panel corresponding to each of IDRC’s research programs to assess the quality of completed research using the Research Quality Plus (RQ+) approach. The goal of this evaluation is to advance IDRC’s stewardship of high-quality research for development.

Evaluation is integral to all of IDRC’s work. The Centre conducts many evaluations to track results, generate knowledge, and remain accountable to the Canadian government and public, our partners, and colleagues within the research and development communities.
