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."

SDGs need interlinked indicators, monitoring & evaluation

Hello, 

I am delighted to share the second briefings on SDG Evaluation with some clear policy pointers that would help policymakers, advisors evaluators and other practitioners engaged in the evaluation of the Sustainable Development Goals, as advocated by Agenda 2030. 

The briefing "Counting critically: SDG ‘follow-up and review’ needs interlinked indicators, monitoring and evaluation" (July 2016) builds on the first, introduces key considerations for the use of indicators, monitoring and evaluation of SDGs implementation and highlights the importance of context-sensitivity, broad stakeholder involvement and adaptive management approaches in efforts to achieve development results. It can be downloaded from  http://pubs.iied.org/17363IIED

This is the second of a series of briefings that are developed by EVALSDGs and published by IIED. They are both available herehttp://pubs.iied.org

Enjoy the read!
Best regards,
Kassem

Thanks for posting Kassem. I liked the factors you have highlighted - keeping the context in mind, stakeholder engagement and adaptive management. Would you have any methodology you have employed for adaptive management? 

A stakeholder I would like to add here- the communities. Can we meaningfully bring them into the dialogue.Often community engagement is limited to tokenistic consultations.
