PARTNER WEBINAR

Introduction to Expanding the Bench for Culturally Responsive and Equitable Evaluation

Does your organization value diversity, inclusion and equity? How are those values reflected in your organization’s approach to learning and evaluation? Expanding the Bench (ETB) is based on the belief that learning and evaluation have the power to shape policy, programs, and practice and that evaluators from diverse communities increase the likelihood that methods, analyses, and interpretation benefit the communities they serve.

On February 25, join this complimentary partner webinar with ETB’s co-directors to learn more about this groundbreaking initiative.

Tending to your altar in 2020: “As we enter a new decade, we wanted to share an invitation for introspection and reflection. What will you bring forward and what will you let go of?”  [more]
