services of the highest standards throughout Southern

We are guided by principles of integrity, excellence and respect.

including programme evaluations, assisting
with the development of programme and organisation-wide monitoring systems, and
building capacity in monitoring and evaluation through M&E
courses and mentoring. insideout country experience

our approach
utilisation focused
insideout 's evaluations are driven by a commitment to be user-orientated
so that the evaluation process and findings are useful for decision
making, and generate knowledge that can be used to strengthen and
improve the programme/organisation.
participatory
insideout recognises the importance of using a participatory approach.
We believe this is important in addressing power dynamics within
the evaluation context, and in creating greater ownership and use
of evaluation findings and monitoring systems. insideout makes every effort to respond to the evaluation needs of all
of the relevant stakeholders, and to reflect their input into the
process and products of the evaluation.
culturally sensitive
insideout values all dimensions of diversity. We make every attempt
to understand different cultural contexts, practices and paradigms.
We believe in the importance of building trust and rapport across
differences, and always encourage participants to speak in their
home language to allow for free expression of their thoughts and
feelings. In addition, insideout strictly adheres to ethical guidelines.
