Why is it important to decolonise evaluation processes? From local community organisations to international development programmes and even within processes such as product and initiative design, people and groups around the globe are exploring what it means to redistribute power within the evaluation process.
In this 60-minute panel discussion, Nish Doshi (Community Organiser and practitioner of decolonising design) and Angela Schlenkhoff-Hus (Senior Learning and Evaluation Consultant at inFocus Consulting) will explore why it is important to decolonise your evaluation process. We’ll be joined by some excellent UK-based practitioners who will share practical examples of how people and organisations from different sectors and perspectives are doing this work.
What you’ll learn:
Takeaways from the event will include the following:
- What it means to start ‘decolonising’ your work, and how this effects the evaluation process;
- Where else organisations are exploring decolonising evaluation, and what methods and initiatives already exist in the international context;
- The strategies UK-based practitioners and community groups are currently experimenting with and implementing;
- The challenges of trying to decolonise evaluation processes and how you can start to overcome them.
