Karla Sanders - Involving Tamariki and Taiohi in Evaluation
In this workshop Karla will discuss how to effectively involve Tamariki and Taiohi in evaluations. She will share examples of best practice when designing evaluation measures as well as undertaking evaluation WITH tamariki and taiohi. The value of this approach is grounded in a belief that young people are crucial partners in evaluation and including them in mana affirming ways should be celebrated and supported.
This workshop will be suitable to organisations and individuals exploring how evaluation could better affirm the mana of young people but it could also apply to those more familiar with evaluation but may not have had experience partnering with youth.
