Toolkit for Stakeholder Asset Mapping by NCAPPS

This stakeholder asset mapping toolkit is a practical resource for making programs more inclusive and effective, as it ensures that planned changes truly reflect the needs of the people most affected. 

From an evaluation perspective, asset mapping also gives evaluation teams a clearer picture of their stakeholder landscape. By showing who is already involved and where engagement is lacking, it provides a strong starting point for assessing a program. Hence, it facilitates evaluators not only in understanding how well a program responds to its intended populations but also in interpreting findings in context by showing how stakeholder insights have influenced decisions, priorities, and implementation.

INTERSECTIONALITY WHEELS: Then and Now

Image
Back in 2009, the Canadian Research Institute for the Advancement of Women (CRIAW-ICREF) developed the Intersectionality Wheel for their publication, Everyone Belongs: A Toolkit for Applying Intersectionality. The goal was to illustrate how various facets of discrimination and social identity come together in people’s lives. Lately, The Equality Institute has refined this model. Their version focuses on a person’s life stages, from infancy to adulthood, and shows how these stages intersect with identities like race, gender, disability, and Indigenous status, while also considering broader systemic challenges such as racism, sexism, and colonialism. Included in the 2022 publication of the UN Women and UN PRPD Intersectionality Resource Guide and Toolkit, this version highlights that a person’s experiences are ever-changing and never fixed. It further deepens the understanding of how power, identity, and social context evolve throughout one’s life. Hnin Ei Lwin #Monitoring   #Evaluat...
