The OMLC Bricolage Fieldbook
Continuing the discussion after the OMLC Learning Lab 2025
The Bricolage Fieldbook is an evolving collection of reflections, visual summaries and practical resources that emerged from the OMLC Learning Lab 2025 held at Waskaduwa, Sri Lanka. It brings together different perspectives on how evaluators combine methods, knowledge, experience and creativity when responding to complexity.
The OMLC Learning Lab 2025 was a practitioner knowledge sharing and learning event in December 2025 in Sri Lanka, organised by the OMLC in partnership with the Institute for Participatory Interaction in Development, the Sri Lankan Evaluation Association, the International Development Research Centre and Humanity United.
This page will feature outputs from the event as well as other content related to bricolage grounded in OM principles.
