About the EPE TIG

Environmental Program Evaluation

Topical Interest Group

EPE TIG members’ interests lie broadly at the intersection of evaluation and the environment, including but not limited to education, climate change, policy, conservation, energy, transportation, and global environmental issues. We share a personal and professional passion for the environment, and for promoting a stronger community of practice in environmental evaluation. The members of the TIG are an inspiring, resourceful, and dynamic community of evaluators – many of whom are leaders in their field. New practitioners learn from the experience of long time evaluators, and more established practitioners learn from the diverse perspectives of an ever-growing member base. To get a sense of what the EPE TIG is all about, check out our upcoming events and our resources (note: these pages are in development).

The next EPE TIG meeting is on Friday, March 13th 2026 from 2-3pm Eastern. Register for this meeting and all future monthly meetings here

The meeting will feature a panel discussion with EPE members, each representing one of the four (unscientific) archetypes of environmental evaluators developed by the EPE TIG leaders and shared at the 2025 AEA conference. Panelists will share about their work and then we'll have a spirited discussion about the state of the field and how these archetypes can help us advance our work individually and collectively.
