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.
