À propos de l'événement
Too often, evaluations are driven by a non-local agenda – but local stakeholders hold the deepest insights into what works and what is most relevant. This webinar dives into the practice of locally led evaluations where power shifts closer to affected communities.
Participants will come away with a conceptual framework that grounds locally led evaluation in key principles and outlines the practical steps to shift their approach closer to locally led evaluations. We will share practical examples of local and community-driven strategies that challenge traditional evaluation practices.
We’ll spotlight the CoLMEAL (Community-Led MEAL) approach – a powerful model that puts communities in the driver’s seat, with local people leading every step of the process: from assessment and design to collecting, analysing, using, and sharing data on their own terms.
Wherever you are on the spectrum of locally led evaluation, and whether you are an evaluator, commissioner or funder, this session will spark conversations, ideas and action to advance locally led and community driven evaluation. Join us to rethink who evaluates, how and why.
