Weave: The Social Fabric Project
Management Purpose and Objective
Weave: The Social Fabric Project seeks a qualified evaluation consultant to support the project team in in two ways: 1) assessing the best strategies for evaluating Weave program outcomes and designing an evaluation toolthat will be used in the future to internally evaluate project outcomes and 2) utilizing a research methodology such as “Most Significant Change’ or similar assess the changes among and between community members and weavers to establish a basis for ongoing priorities and evaluation.
Weave requires a protocol containing a set of evaluation questions that can be asked of similar programming in the future. In order to understand the relevance of such an evaluation protocol, Weave must also understand the direct, indirect and/or unanticipated outcomes of the project through key informant interviews that inform us of the value the program has brought to communities, neighborhoods and individuals.
Weave is seeking a qualified consultant, familiar with the Most Significant Change methodology or similar, who will incorporate value seeking questioning to inform the program team and the overall evaluation protocol.
