- Abstract
This article studies the foundation for evaluation recommendations, tools, training and technical assistance to help community-based organizations (CBOs) build their evaluation capacity. First, a qualitative study of CBOs, funders and technical assistance providers was conducted. It showed their beliefs and attitudes about evaluation, preferences and requirements for evaluation, and evaluation methods that are being used at CBOs and recommendations regarding feasible and effective evaluation that CBOs can use. The themes that arose in the interviews were the following: facilitators and barriers to conducting evaluation, evaluation methods that CBOs use and how to increase the capacity of CBOs to conduct evaluations.
