Video Conference: Achieving Greater Truth and Impact: Unpacking Power Dynamics in Measurement and Evaluation – Feb 16
Posted by Philanthropy Network Greater Philadelphia on February 15, 2022
The power dynamic between community organizations and funders can block information that could both drive better decision-making and fuel more investment in communities most in need. If we do not address the power dynamic, at best, we are driving decision-making from partial truths. At worst, we are generating inaccurate information that ultimately does more harm than good in our communities. This is why we must care about how data is collected, research is conducted, and impact is measured.
Please join Chicago Beyond‘s team as they lead a session on their guidebook titled Why Am I Always Being Researched? We hope this session will provide the tools needed to notice and address power dynamics in your own work so that your teams can more authentically measure, evaluate, and achieve impact.
This event is open to funders, community organizations, and others interested in exploring how addressing power dynamics in research, measurement, and evaluation can lead to better impact.
Date and Time: Wednesday, February 16, 2022, 10:00-11:30 AM
