F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Outcomes for Money (OxM): an unorthodox Analysis of Value for Money

Hi everyone

I'd like to share  this short learning paper describes this experimental methodology takes a fresh look at the notion of value for money, by redefining ‘value’ as the changes experienced in terms of new knowledge, attitudes and behaviour. Shifting the focus from what has been delivered to what has been achieved brings the analysis closer to the daily realities of beneficiaries. This primarily visual analysis does not deliver a verdict of good or bad VfM but instead compares the changes experienced by our communities, with the reach attained by the programme and the investment made; laying the foundations for deeper reflection that combines the drive to efficiency with that for programme quality and sustainability. The more programmatic and intuitive nature of this analysis proved more engaging for programme implementers, enabling them to reflect on the challenges and trade-offs between economic considerations, reach and programme quality; giving rise to strong analysis, compelling arguments and some intriguing what-ifs.  http://bit.ly/1qERZBS
