The Smart Toolkit focuses on the evaluation of information projects, products and services from a learning perspective. It looks at evaluation within the context of the overall project cycle, from project planning and implementation to monitoring, evaluation and the impact assessment, and then at evaluation process itself, the tools involved and examples of their application. The theme running throughout the toolkit is: participatory evaluation for learning and impact. The emphasis is on internal evaluation - or 'self evaluation' - rather than external evaluation.

There are dozens of emerging interactive web applications and services (often referred to as the participatory web, or Web 2.0). These can enhance the ways we create, share, and publish information. But these technical opportunities also bring challenges that we need to understand and grasp. Some of the key questions that this special issue will seek to address include: How can Web 2.0 applications be integrated with participatory development approaches? How can they facilitate and contribute to people´s participation and decision-making? What are the challenges and barriers to people´s participation? How do we address factors such as access, equity, control, and oversight? Can Web 2.0 applications challenge fundamental social inequalities? This special issue aims to publish a collection of articles, which provide working examples from practice.
