It was an amazing process to co-write this book! We explore how #Eval and applied research can reframe values from peripheral to central and what this means for our roles within #democracy and #systemschange.
Excited to get a copy of & dig into this new book, @EmilyfGates ! 🤓📖books.google.com/books?id=s0… #eval #evaluation #values #research

We know that every scenario process includes some future conditions and values and excludes others 📈But how are these boundaries generated? And can we enrich them with the transformative conditions of the 21st century? Read our new paper in One Earth!🌿doi.org/10.1016/j.oneear.202… 1/

Last week, we launched our 2023 Benchmarking report. One key finding among foundations: building teams that are equitable and diverse are key considerations.

ALT Graphic that reads, "In 2023, foundations regularly considered the diversity of teams when conducting or commissioning evaluations 74% of the time — u from 52% in 2019. Plus, team member alignment with equity values is regularly considered by 76% of foundations." Image includes Center for Evaluation logo.

How do we transform #eval to support pathways to viable futures?
Here are 5 ways from my @UKevaluation keynote.
Slides avail here: researchgate.net/publication…
Does anyone teach a grad course in evaluating systemic change or systems approaches to evaluation? Or take one?
I'm designing a new course for spring '23 covering theory and methods. Looking for syllabi and thought partners - DM if interested
