SUMMARY:Making evaluation engaging: Research findings from non-evaluat
 ors working in culturally diverse contexts
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Making evaluation engaging: Research findings from
  non-evaluators working in culturally diverse contextsPresenter: Alis
 on Rogers, University of Melbourne Centre for Program Evaluation\r\nDa
 te and time: Wednesday 20th October 2021 5.30 - 6.30pm AEDTRegister o
 nline by: noon on 18th October\r\nThis is a free seminar organised by
  the Victorian Regional Network Committee of the AES. Our seminar seri
 es provides an opportunity for you to meet with AES members and others
  in the evaluation community and to share and learn from the experienc
 es of fellow evaluators.\r\nSeminar overview\r\nAn enduring challenge 
 for evaluators is how to recruit evaluation champions and keep stakeho
 lders engaged. This session will share findings from research conducte
 d as part of Alison’s PhD which examined the role of non-evaluators,
  and identified strategies that can be used to support engagement.\r\n
 The session will use a fable, The animal farm and a postal worker, to
  illustrate key points about evaluators and evaluation champions. This
  illustrative anecdote captures the importance of having non-evaluator
 s on evaluation teams who can assist with generating enthusiasm around
  evaluation. This seminar will present research undertaken with non-ev
 aluators who were able to make evaluation relevant, meaningful and use
 ful for their colleagues working in Australian non-profit organisation
 s. Based on interviews and case studies, the seminar will share the pe
 rspectives of non-evaluators undertaking evaluation in culturally dive
 rse contexts. It will highlight their insights into how to overcome in
 terpersonal barriers to evaluation by developing meaningful interperso
 nal relationships and understanding their colleagues as individuals. I
 t will conclude with a discussion around their practical strategies an
 d the implications of this research for developing equitable and inclu
 sive working environments.  Link: https://aes.asn.au/aes-blog/the-a
