Funders perspective on #evaluation from @SquirrelMain#RIsummit based on 10 years data from Ian Potter Foundation
✅funders: fully fund applicants
✅applicants: ask for what you need (incl eval)
✅projects with evaluation leverage more funding

Great session by @SquirrelMain at the #RIsummit. Key messages: 1. Include budget for evaluation in project funding applications. 2. Involve stakeholders from the start. 3. Include infographics. @resimpacademy
@RebeccaGelding Evaluation two levels: long-term outcomes AND learning. So what outcomes occurred in the research, but also a look at process. In plain English, what would you improve if you were to repeat? And what’s the efficiency gain (of improvements AND the research itself)
