Evaluation is crucial for the work of successful programs and initiatives. Evaluation helps us understand what is happening (and what works) in a program or initiative, improve functioning through feedback and quality improvement systems, and provide accountability to stakeholders.
Informed by the principles, values, and methods of community-based evaluation and participatory action research, this module is meant to be hands on and practical, helping you consider how you can use your evaluation to improve your effort, communicate progress to stakeholders, and celebrate success.
