How to make evaluation more proportionate
About this event
This interactive workshop is for charities who want to evaluate their work and measure their impact, but have limited resources. How do you decide what to evaluate and measure? What constitutes a proportionate and meaningful way to evaluate in your project or service?
Hosted by Elliot Trevithick, NPC’s Principal of Charities Evaluation and Learning, this workshop will be interactive, and there will be plenty of space and opportunity to ask your questions. The workshop will ask:
- What do we mean by proportionate evaluation?
- Why evaluate at all?
- What are the different levels of evidence?
- How do Theories of Change fit in?
- How to structure and word survey questions in a proportionate way?
- How to collect and analyse data in a proportionate way?
