Overview
Join the Learning and Evaluation for Australian Funders (LEAF) network for an exclusive one-day roundtable with one of the most respected and sought-after global leaders in evaluation, Professor Patricia Rogers.
In today’s philanthropic landscape, it is critical to understand the impact of the programs and projects that grants fund. This forum will introduce you to the power of non-experimental evaluation — approaches that rigorously assess outcomes and impact without relying on a control or comparison group.
Through hands-on exercises and real-world case studies, you will explore how to apply non-experimental evaluation methods such as process tracing, qualitative comparative analysis (QCA), and comparative case studies to assess impact.
This workshop will equip you with a clear understanding of how these approaches work, how to incorporate them effectively into your funding strategies and how to engage with and manage experts conducting these evaluations.
Seats are limited—don’t miss this opportunity to learn from a global leader in evaluation. Secure your place today!
