  • SDE; New Working Paper: Inclusive or Rational Participatory Evaluation?, Slovenian Evaluation Society Working Papers no. XVII/1(Dec 2024), 41 pp., by Bojan Radej.

Four tools applying participatory processes are assessed – Most Significant Change, Causal Mapping, SenseMaker, and Outcome Harvesting – for their neutrality assessed as their contributions to social inclusion and collective rationality. The former relies on effectively managing bias in participatory processes, while the latter depends on the capacity to aggregate participants’ inputs at the collective level. This paper finds that the tools try to suppress or bypass bias rather than engage with it productively. Furthermore, they either refuse the synthesis of findings or overgeneralise. A new approach to participatory evaluation is proposed…

  • Poziv da se uključite u diskusiju na WBEN Forum: Nedavne mjere američke administracije zaustavile su financiranje mnogih razvojnih i humanitarnih projekata diljem svijeta, u kojima su sudjelovali evaluatori. Zanima me jesu li nove restrikcije utjecale i na vas, posredno ili neposredno. Što to znači za evaluacije u budućnosti?
