Evaluations are important tools to inform the future, while documenting the past – more here.
Based in the EMPOWERHOUSE ethos, Birgitte has extensive experience in making evaluations participatory learning experiences for all involved. Human warmth and some fun are important elements!

Strategic planning – as here in Palestine – is one of the important components in Birgitte’s toolbox*. Through an effective, participatory planning process, a team – as here – or a CSO, a community radio/medium can take charge, prioritize and much better achieve their aims and aspirations, as they have been formulated through a vision and mission, and ways to make them come through mapped out.

EMPOWERHOUSE finds a way to get there
[By boat]
In 2006 Birgitte carried out an impact assessment of the Buzi Community Radio in Mozambique. It was just after heavy rains and flooding, so the road had been washed away – the team then went by boat.
[By road]
In 2018 Birgitte carried out an evaluation of a Social Change programme in Rwanda after a rainy period. Getting to the project sites in the rural areas, was in many places a real challenge – despite an ace driver!
[By air]
When on a tight mission schedule during an evaluation in Tanzania in 2015, Ifakara had to be reached. Instead of two days on the road, we went by air over breathtaking landscapes.
