The first part of the workshop will feature presentation from Professor Alnoor Ebrahim from The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy.
Dr. Ebrahim’s book “Measuring Social Change: Performance & Accountability in a Complex World” has been published by the Stanford University press in 2019. In his book, Professor Ebrahim presents different models of managing social effectiveness depending on complexity of social change and operational strategy of an organization. He offers four standard approaches for measuring social change and corresponding ways to manage performance within the framework of these approaches. This work presents methodological ways of defining the extent of NGOs influence on social change.
Panel discussion with participation of experts in project and program evaluation, managers and practitioners in the field of childhood, and representatives from the academic community, will constitute a second part of the webinar. A wide range of specialists from different fields is invited to participate. The workshop will take place online; please register before the event here.
