Better Evaluation Virtual Writeshop

Irene Guijt posted this on the Pelican List serv today

Perhaps you have undertaken an evaluation on a program to mitigate climate change effects on rural people living in poverty, or one on capacity development in value chains. Or worked on participatory ways to make sense of evaluation data, or developed simple ways to integrate numbers and stories. We’d like to bring unknown experiences to the global stage for wider use.

Do you have an experience that covers many different aspects of evaluation – design, collection, sensemaking, and reporting? Did you look at different options to develop a context-sensitive approach? And has your evaluation process not yet been shared widely? If your answer is yes to these questions, then our virtual writeshop on evaluation may be of interest.

We will facilitate a virtual writeshop between May and September 2011 that will lead to around 10 focused documents to be shared globally. Participating in the writeshop will give you structured editorial support and peer review to develop a publication for the BetterEvaluation site.

For more information, including how to submit a proposal, go here.

Thanks for sharing the info on the BetterEvaluation writeshop.

The email address for proposals has been changed to Patricia.Rogers@rmit.edu.au.

We look forward to proposals from all parts of the evaluation world.
