{"product_id":"9781462532858","title":"Collaborative, Participatory, and Empowerment Evaluation: Stakeholder Involvement Approaches","description":"From pioneering leaders in the field, this is the first book to provide a solid foundation for three major stakeholder involvement approaches: collaborative, participatory, and empowerment evaluation. Highlighting differences among the approaches, the authors focus on the role of the evaluator, who may be in charge of the evaluation, share control, or serve as a \"critical friend,\" leaving stakeholders in control. Practitioners are guided to select and implement the most appropriate framework for the purpose and scope of a given evaluation and the needs of community members and funders. For each approach, a chapter on essential features is followed by two chapters presenting actual sample evaluations--for example, early childhood and community health initiatives, an aquarium, a project with Google, and more. The concluding chapter discusses similarities and circumstances in which the approaches can be combined.\u003cbr\u003e  ","brand":"Guilford Publications, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47158137585904,"sku":"9781462532858","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781462532858_p0.jpg?v=1763677541","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781462532858","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
