Evaluation is facing a crisis: questions of representation, relevance, harmful practice and credibility are more pressing than ever. Storytelling could be part of the solution.
When storytelling is used in ways that are truly relational, culturally-anchored and trauma-informed, stories can shift power, change mindsets, honour diverse voices and lived experiences, and produce evidence that is more relevant, credible, inclusive and impactful.
But despite best intentions, some barriers remain:
- How do we create the space for good qualitative approaches in a world dominated by AI and quantitative metrics?
- How do we move beyond tokenistic methods?
- How can we constantly keep in check and overcome unconscious bias and limitations resulting from the dominant Euro-Western system?
- Who can we turn to to discuss practical issues and solutions to issues as they arise?
