Hi, everyone. I get a question! Different stakeholders may have different expectations for the program evaluation. May I ask how evaluators could deal with such contradictory expectations?

Hi, we are invited to develop an evaluation program on IFSCs. May I ask why we need to clarify the meaning of evaluation to the program personnel? I thought it was common sense.

I’m really interested in the I-FAST model. May I ask where I could find more information about this model? It would be great if the information has already been examined in the Hong Kong context.
