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."

As you may already know, a growing number of evaluation associations and other important organizations around the world have declared 2015 as the International Year of Evaluation (EvalYear). But what does this mean for those of us in AEA?
First of all, please note that this is the International Year of Evaluation, not the Year of International Evaluation, and this difference is important. Indeed, there are many things happening around the world, but 2015 is also a year for each of us to promote the awareness, appreciation, demand, practice, and use of evaluation in our own work, no matter where we live or work. On the Evaluation Capacity Development Group website, long-time AEA member Alexey Kuzmin offers an amazing story and some excellent suggestions about making 2015 your EvalYear.
At the same time, it’s certainly true that many exciting things are happening on the global level:
As you can see, this is an exciting year for evaluation, and the world will be filled with exciting events. But let’s not forget the practical, close-to-home advice from Alexey Kuzmin:
“The question is: What can 2015 become for each of us? What will your International Year of Evaluation look like? My suggestion is this: Let us have our own (individual) Year of Evaluation agendas. Let us do what is most natural for us considering our cultural, economic, and political environments. Those could be small things. But small is beautiful! Let us simply talk to people about evaluation – just a few more people and talks than usual. Let us use social networks to share that information with our friends and colleagues. We may want to do some pro-bono evaluation related work, or write articles on evaluation for non-evaluation journals.
“I do believe that the International Year of Evaluation can and should be celebrated by each of us individually. By doing small things, we can make a difference and will contribute to evaluation capacity development worldwide. And it will be fun!”
