Increasing participation in evaluation – Bruner Foundation guide

The "Increasing participation in evaluation" bulletin was developed by Anita Baker with Beth Bruner to help organizations integrate evaluative thinking into their organizational practice.

This three-page bulletin discusses how organization staff, evaluators, and funders are typically involved in participatory evaluation.

The guide also defines the term "Ripple", and how to accomplish Ripple as well as examining what it looks like when executive leaders and management staff use evaluative thinking.
