Ethics for Evaluation: Beyond “doing no harm” to “tackling bad” and “doing good” de Rob D. van den Berg

Ethics for Evaluation: Beyond “doing no harm” to “tackling bad” and “doing good”: Comparative Policy Evaluation

Editat de Rob D. van den Berg, Penny Hawkins, Nicoletta Stame
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2023
In Ethics for Evaluation the diverse perspectives on ethical guidance in evaluation are untangled and ordered in a theoretical framework focusing on evaluations doing no harm, tackling bad and doing good.
Divided into four parts a diverse group of subject experts present a practical look at ethics, utilizing practical experience to analyze how ethics have been applied in evaluations and how new approaches can shape the future of ethics. The chapters collectively create a common understanding of the potential role of ethics to infuse policy decisions and stakeholder initiatives with evaluations that provide better insight and potential solutions for problems, going beyond "what works" to what needs to be done and what would help. The methodological scope ranges from working in contexts of fragility, conflict and violence, to participatory and decolonized approaches, including the ethical imperatives posed by global crises such as climate change, inequity and exploitative international relations.
Ethics for Evaluation presents evaluators, commissioners of evaluation, policymakers and practitioners with inspiration for an ethical perspective on how evaluation can contribute towards solving problems. It presents a solid foundation for inclusive terminology and ethics guidance that would be the heart of a global exercise in professionalization of ethical evaluation practice.

Recenzii

"Ethics for Evaluation is engaging and inspiring, and provides a valuable framework and guidance to help evaluators practice ethically across the global landscape. It is a must read for anyone planning to commission, conduct, or use evaluations in rapidly changing environments such as education, health care, communities, and a variety of organizational settings in these post-normal times."
Stewart I. Donaldson, Distinguished University Professor, Claremont Graduate University
"I strongly recommend this book for those who care about the impact of evaluation. It considers ethics for evaluators, in their actions and practices, and also for evaluations, in terms of how its scope and processes are framed. It also considers ‘tackling bad’ and ‘do no harm’ and then also ‘ be restorative’ – going beyond net-zero to having a positive impact. The range of examples means that it will offer lessons from examples that feel very familiar and from situations that appear unfamiliar. It deserves to be read by everyone involved in managing the evaluation function within an organisation, or who sees themselves as an evaluation professional, and should become essential reading in graduate evaluation programs."
Patricia Rogers, CEO, BetterEvaluation
[This book] fills a much-needed gap in the exploration of ethical issues faced by the evaluators and the evaluation profession. Through real-life case studies that resonate, this book provides much-needed guidance on how we can practice more ethically not only to reduce harm but to have a positive impact.
