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."

It relates strongly to the evaluation of public policies and gender equality by parliaments, as it is about Gender responsive budgeting.

Dear Ranjani- thank you for this suggestion- it is a good idea which ISST will consider- we can possibly tie this in with a policy seminar that we are planning for March/April 2015. On another note though, as far as I am aware, the IOE is no longer functional, so it will have to be with the involvement of other government officials.

I would like to suggest a discussion in India in 2015 on "Learning from, and strengthening of, government managed evaluations from a gender and equity lens". I am wondering if this could be a joint event of ISST (which manages engendering project through evaluation), Independent Office of Evaluation, and UN Women. If ISST could mull over this it would nice

I would like to suggest the formal creation of a programme of traineeships. Any vacancies for evaluators requires multiple years of experience, and it is very hard to get that experience if you have not gone through the formal credential procedures which are very expensive and again require experience. SO, as an emerging evaluator i am finding myself in a bit of a vicious circle where it is difficult to apply all  the valuable things I have learned from the M and courses E and BetterEvaluation. I would love to contribute to the creation of such a traineeship system, where experienced evaluators in different fields accompany or supervise emergent evaluators.

Thank you.
