Indigenous evaluation meets the needs and priorities of Indigenous Peoples. Honouring Reconciliation in Evaluation (HRE) allows us to identify bias in the methods and approaches to make room for new notions of what is measurable and what provides valid evidence. Since no evaluation can be value-free, HRE answers the question of whose values will frame the evaluation. This session will introduce HRE and how can gain the knowledge and tools to integrate Indigenous-led evaluation in your organization/program.
