Evaluation for Arts & Social Justice Projects
Creative, participatory, and justice-oriented evaluation frameworks that align with your values and amplify impact.
My Evaluation Services
I design and deliver evaluation frameworks for arts-based projects, focusing on process-driven learning, social justice, and community impact.
- Co-Design Frameworks: Collaborative development of evaluation plans and theory (and or metaphor) of change with stakeholders.
- Mixed-Methods Data Collection: Arts-based tools like visual mapping, body mapping, interviews, surveys, and observations.
- Reporting & Toolkits: Annual reports, final summative reports, infographics, and replicable methodology toolkits.
- Participatory Analysis: Thematic, multimodal, and statistical analysis prioritizing multivocality and embodied knowledge.
My Approach
Grounded in decolonial, feminist, trauma-informed, and creative principles, our evaluations create reflective spaces for learning and transformation.
Key Principles
- Process-driven and participatory, valuing relational and sensory knowledge from arts practices.
- Justice-oriented, centering marginalized voices, intercultural dialogue, and systemic change.
- Mixed methodologies: Action research, somatic practices, photo elicitation, and quantitative data.
- Co-produced with artists, educators, participants, and organisations for relevance and ethics.
Weaving joy, hope, and play into rigorous evaluation to honor the fullness of human experience.
