Our CEO, Baillie Aaron, has written a blog for New Philanthropy Capital on some of the challenges of evaluating programmes for people in prison, and how we have used co-design to try to overcome them.
“We undermine people in prison when we decide what metrics we use to define and measure their success. Imposing a directive theory of change goes against our organisation’s ethos and our coaching approach: we believe people in prison are the experts of their own lives, with the power to change their futures.”
Baillie will be speaking on involving participants in programme evaluation at NPC Ignites, NPC’s 8th annual conference on 10th October. Book your place here.
