Workshop Date: Thursday 8th October 2009 Time: 12.30pm to 4.30pm
Venue: Toynbee Hall, Aldgate, London
Twenty years ago, evaluation in the third sector was limited. There was very little support for third sector organisations wishing to evaluate their work, and self-evaluation was treated with suspicion by many. The situation in 2009 is somewhat different. Many third sector organisations routinely self evaluate and a number commission external evaluations. Although the prime motivators are still accountability and meeting the demands of funders and commissioners, many report the benefits of monitoring and evaluation for learning and decision making.
This timely event will enable presenters and participants to share their knowledge of existing evaluation practices in the UK third sector, and to explore some of the challenges facing us in the future. It aims to build networks of UK third sector evaluators (both self evaluators and external evaluators).
The event will start with lunch to allow for networking opportunities. It will include the following presentations:
- An overview of monitoring and evaluation in third sector
- Developing evaluation capacity
- Using evaluation findings.
Speakers will be drawn from frontline voluntary sector organisations, infrastructure bodies and sector funders, and sessions will be highly interactive.
This workshop is open to anyone, but evaluation practitioners, third sector organisations and their funders are particularly encouraged to attend.
