online webinar
Contact: Liz Williams - josaitis@msu.edu
This session is for people who work with Indigenous communities and who want to ensure that the evaluation of their activities is culturally responsive and aligned. This session will answer the basic questions: what is evaluation? what is Indigenous evaluation?
We will also share methods and approaches that have worked well for us in various Indigenous evaluation contexts. We will also give you some ideas about how to start an Indigenous evaluation using a program theory of change. And finally, we will briefly highlight some of the common challenges (and solutions) in Indigenous evaluation.
Presenter: Dr. Nicole MartinRogers and Jennifer Garbow
