Putting the Party in Participatory Evaluation with Youth

Want to include youth as active stakeholders in your evaluations but don’t really know how?  This training examines participatory evaluation, a method of evaluation that calls for the inclusion of stakeholders throughout the evaluation process. Participants will review how The Ministry of Health and Long Term Care’s 11 Principles of Youth Engagement can inform participatory evaluation, with a particular emphasis on data collection. The training will highlight the benefits and barriers to participatory evaluation with youth. Participants will examine case studies which examine participatory evaluation efforts in tobacco control. Participants will be provided with tangible tools for use with youth in participatory data collection. This training is offered in partnership between YATI and Public Health Ontario’s- Health Promotion Capacity Building Services
