<p>PHA 4 focuses on health equity, in line with the principles of WHO's declaration on primary health care at Alma Ata. The trend toward Universal Health Coverage often focuses on private health insurers and other inequitable health financing mechanisms that exclude services for the poor, women and vulnerable groups. With health evaluators, researchers, advocates and activists from Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Global North, PHA 4 will examine factors that affect the right to health at national, regional and global levels.</p>
<p><span>In advance of and beyond PHA4, the People's Health Movement (PHM) wants to advance its campaign work around “<strong><a href="https://phmovement.org/gender-thematic-circle-mobilising-for-pha4/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gender Justice and Health</a></strong>”.

<p>Hi fellow evaluators,</p>
<p><strong>Brief introduction:</strong> I am a researcher with more than 6 years of experience in diverse industry segments. Currently, I am working as a Brands Consultant with a WPP group organisation, Kantar Millward Brown and helping clients in identifying key communication and messaging levers for their brand advertisements.</p>
<p><strong>What am I looking for:</strong> I am looking to re-enter the M&E space and I would really appreciate any help in this regard.</p>
<p><strong>Experience in M&E:</strong> Earlier, I was associated with Catalyst Management Services as a Quantitative researcher where I worked on different facets of an impact evaluation, right from writing proposals, coming up with an appropriate evaluation design and arriving at a representative sample to actual implementation on the ground, training the field enumerators and collecting qualitative and quantitative data. I have worked in areas including agriculture, livelihoods, education and gender inequality.</p>
<p><strong>How can I add value:</strong> Having worked in the field of advanced analytics, I am now equipped with analytical techniques such as path modelling (or Structural Equation Modelling), decision tree analysis (using CHAID) and Bayesian Modelling. This is, of course, on top of the usual techniques that we use in impact evaluations such as linear/logistic regressions, significance testing, propensity score matching, sampling, etc. I firmly believe that these advanced techniques can add a lot of value to our existing impact evaluation landscape.</p>
<p>I am also attaching my CV for your reference.</p>
<p>Thank you for your time and effort.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>

<p>Greetings Colleagues!</p>
<p>It's difficult to believe that the deadline for submissions to AEA's conference is only 5 days away!. The Feminist Issues in Evaluation Topical Interest Group (TIG) is planning our 2018 proposal strategy for the AEA conference which will be held in Cleveland, Ohio from October 28<sup>th </sup>through November 3<sup>rd</sup><span> </span>2018. The submission deadline is March 15<sup>th</sup><span> </span>2018. The TIG is hoping to build on last year’s record number of submissions and would encourage you to share your exciting projects, methodologies and other activities. Please consider<span> </span><a href="http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=602">submitting a proposal</a>.</p>
<p>This year’s theme is on “<a href="http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=627">Speaking Truth to Power</a>”. AEA has identified the following questions to help develop proposals:</p>
<ul>
<li>What responsibilities do we have as evaluators for Speaking Truth to Power? When? In what contexts or situations? With what consequences? At what risk or cost? To whom, with what expectations?</li>
<li>What is power? Who has it, and how can they best be influenced? What is the power held by evaluators and evaluation?</li>
<li>What is truth? Whose truth? How can we best discover these truths?</li>
<li>And, what is speaking? Whispering? Public pronouncements? Influence? Activism? And by whom on behalf of whom?</li>
</ul>
<p>The conference website lists the following<span> </span><a href="http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=600">kinds of sessions</a>:<span> </span>panel discussions, expert lectures, roundtables, skill building workshops, ignite sessions, birds of a feather gatherings, and a new flexible session type that allows for experiential learning.<span> </span>Find details and submit your proposal at:<span> </span><a href="http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=602">http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=602</a><span> </span>.</p>
<p>If you are interested in<span> </span><strong>presenting a paper</strong><span> </span>you could either submit individual proposals, which AEA would then assign to whichever session they felt was appropriate, or you could consider working with at least two other colleagues to put together a panel for a 45 or 60 minute session. While a panel session requires more organization, it has the advantage that you can ensure that the whole session will focus on the issues in which you are interested. The risk of submitting an individual paper is that it can sometimes get “lost” by being combined with other papers that are addressing different topics.</p>
<p>If you would like to<span> </span><strong>consider a panel</strong>, but you have not identified other presenters, we can try to help you find other colleagues who might like to join with you. Please also let us know if you have ideas for a panel or other kind of session, but are not quite sure how to put this together, please send us your ideas and we can work with you on a plan. In any case, we would appreciate it if you could let us know if you are planning a submission, both so that we can provide any support you might need, but also so that we can ensure coordination among all of the different submissions from TIG members so that we can present a strong and well-articulated package of proposals. The proposal submission is very competitive and there is no guarantee that your proposals will be accepted. </p>
<p>In addition to the above options please feel free to be creative and to consider all of the different options that AEA provides. The TIG is also strengthening its cooperation with other TIGs, so you are also encouraged to consider joint proposals with colleagues from other TIGs.</p>
<p>So please let us know if you are interested in considering a submission and also how we can help.<span> </span><strong>For help with the preparation of your proposals, and to keep the TIG in the loop please contact<span> </span></strong><a href="mailto:jwhyn021@uottawa.ca"><strong>jwhyn021@uottawa.ca</strong></a><strong><span> </span>.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Please consider volunteering to serve as a peer-reviewer for our TIG</strong>. It is a great way to get involved with the TIG and help to ensure that we put our best foot forward at the conference. To volunteer please either (1) Contact Christine Bell at <a href="mailto:Christine.fabian@wisc.edu">Christine.fabian@wisc.edu</a> or reply to this email by<span> </span><span>Thursday March 15th</span> or (2) select our TIG as one for which you’d like to serve as a reviewer when you submit your own proposal through the AEA website.</p>
<p>Please note, AEA does provide international travel grants to support attending the conference but there is no guarantee that conference submissions will receive one. Additional information on the grants and eligibility criteria can be found at this link : <a href="http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=242">http://www.eval.org/p/cm/ld/fid=242</a> . The Feminist Issues in Evaluation does not award travel grants.</p>
<p>Looking forward to hearing from you and to putting together a really strong Feminist TIG program for AEA2018. See you in Cleveland this fall!</p>
<p>Program Co-chairs,</p>
<p>Christine Fabian Bell, and Jane Whynot</p>
