# How to Contribute to the Playbook

This is a living playbook maintained by a Steering Committee staffed by the Center for Global Development, IDinsight, and The Agency Fund. AI evaluation is an active area of research, with new methods and best practices being explored all the time. We welcome edits, suggestions, and feedback to help keep this resource relevant and useful, and we hope to keep updating it as the space evolves.

We aim to release new versions of the playbook incorporating community feedback every quarter.

## Ways to contribute

### 1. Send us an email

Reach out to us at <ai-eval-playbook@idinsight.org> with your feedback, suggestions, or questions.

### 2. Use the feedback form

Every page in the playbook includes a feedback form at the bottom. Use it to leave quick comments or suggestions about the content on that page.

### 3. Raise a pull request on GitHub

For direct edits or contributions, open a pull request in our GitHub repository: <https://github.com/IDinsight/ai-eval-playbook>.

## What happens next

### 1. We review contributions monthly

The Steering Committee does this at least monthly but could respond faster if urgent

### 2. We may reach out for clarification

If we think there's something actionable but need more information we'll reach out. Please engage with us!

### 3. We'll list you as a contributor!

We're keen to grow our community of contributors. Join us!
