A new resource from Max Bell Foundation: "Evaluating Advocacy for Developing, Adopting and Implementing Public Policy." To find success, policy advocates need to monitor, evaluate, and adapt as they go. This guide is intended to help with that dimension of the work. It summarizes the state of the art of evaluation tools a policy advocate may want to draw on in designing their own evaluation strategy. Its author, Mark Cabaj, is among Canada’s leading thinkers in the evaluation world, and he has organized the guide with the needs of policy advocates in mind. https://lnkd.in/gsRQi6ki #evaluation #policy #advocacy
