What principles should guide an empowerment evaluation? And how can
these principles actually be put into practice? One of the primary
tasks in an empowerment evaluation (EE) is to increase the capacity of
program stakeholders to plan, implement, and evaluate their own
programs. This book presents the most current formulation of the 10
principles of EE and provides professionals and students with the
tools to put these principles into practice. Through case studies of
diverse evaluation projects--including community health foundation
initiatives, school district programs, and a $15 million corporate
program aimed at bridging the digital divide--the founder and leading
proponents of EE clarify key concepts and discuss important lessons
learned. Coverage includes how to balance program improvement efforts
with accountability requirements; how EE can be used to guide
standards-based work; how to use EE in a learning organization; the
differences among empowerment, collaborative, and participatory
evaluation; and much more.
