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."

Suggested Approaches to Conduct Impact Assessment Without a Baseline Data

Priya Anand posted a query (https://gendereval.ning.com/forum/topics/impact-assessment-without-...) on 28th September 2015 regarding approaches to conduct impact assessment without a baseline data. A team of three people namely Sirjan Adhikari (Nepal), Solomon Bizualem (Ethiopia) and  Ugwuibe Ted C (Nigeria) has summarized the suggested approaches to make a combined references. We hope this will help us and other people in the related subject area.

Summary of Recommended Approaches

1. Comparison of Control and Treatment Group or Cross-sectional Analysis Methods-Propensity Score Matching can be used to select sample groups

2. Document Review/Analysis to reconstruct baseline information/data

3.  Participatory Impact Assessment- Tools can be Focus Group Discussion (FGD), Key Informant Interview (KII), SWOT(C) Analysis

4. Regression Analysis can also be used within intervention group by selecting some elements

5. Past and Present Analysis (through KII, FGDs, Document Reviews)

6. Most Significant Change Approach/ Techniques - to identify the changes brought by the use

7. Time-Series/ Longitudinal Analysis

This is very important. we were faced with similar situation where a consultant could not tell us the impact of a programme because he could not get baseline data
