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."

Power is a key though tricky issue in evaluations, which becomes even trickier and sometimes gets hidden in multicultural complex contexts in Latin America. On one hand, social change implies changing unequal power relations, and on the other, power relations are inevitably present in all interactions during the evaluation process.
With the goal to promote greater South-North dialogue on evaluations, and based on our professional evaluation experiences in countries like Bolivia and Guatemala, last Saturday we shared our reflections, lessons and proposals on dealing with power issues in evaluation at the 2015 Conference of the American Evaluation Conference in Chicago.
We proposed evaluators to “step back and step down” and, at the same time, become activists of social change. We also proposed a “Power Blindness Wheel”, as a model that identifies niches where power may “hide” during evaluations; we shared tips to disentangle power relations in the process. We finally invited the audience to “take off our own lenses in order to see new things”.
We are pleased to share our presentations with the EvalGender+ community, and eager to receive your comments and feedback!
