Navigating evaluation: Making waves in Aotearoa and across the Pacific.

The navigational metaphors and questions below invite you to begin exploring, connecting and exchanging ideas as you prepare your conference abstracts and presentations.

•  Finding a compass: What are the ethical, theoretical or methodological approaches that help us stay on course? What is the destination?

•  Turning tides: How is evaluation contributing to social justice, equity and sustainability?

•  Making waves: Are we being heard? How can evaluation make a bigger contribution to government policy and decision-making?

•  All at sea: How do we anchor theory and practice in a world where change is a constant and complexity is the norm?

•  Choppy waters, stormy seas: What are the evidence challenges in evaluation? What counts as credible evidence in Maori, Pacific, community and policy contexts?

•  Sailing the Pacific: How do we give momentum to Pacific led evaluation theory, practice and capability across Aotearoa and the Pacific?

•  Distant horizons: What is on the evaluation horizon? How are you navigating evaluation waters to bring new knowledge, values and practice together?

•  Casting the net: How do we weave evaluative thinking into the fabric of organisations in across Aotearoa and the Pacific.
