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."

Participation in the Real World

After being interviewed for his research, ImpactReady invited Chris Morris, a graduate student, to write up his findings from assessing the level of real participation in humanitarian evaluations.

After assessing a sample of reports and speaking with NGOs and evaluations, Chris concluded that "Evaluators need to be given more leeway to involve communities in all stages of the evaluation. To provide this leeway a different approach to commissioning and designing evaluations is needed."

His full piece includes a discussion of 5 areas where we can include participation in evaluation and can be found at: http://impactready.org/real-world-participation-in-evaluation/

Hi Joseph, thanks for sharing this blog. I liked it very much.

I facilitate participatory evaluation and in my experience too degree of participation and at which stage of participation are critical. My high moment has been when I was able to facilitate analysis with the community. My dream is to promote participatory practices and bring together those who facilitate these approaches. Warm greetings!
