Hello,



*The Evaluation Centre for Complex Health Interventions *at* *the* Li Ka
Shing Knowledge Institute, St. Michael's Hospital* would like to remind you
about our latest workshop titled *“*Getting Real about Results:
Incorporating Local Realities in Evaluating Performance”.

*When: *2:00-5:00pm on* *March 6th 2013  (*one week from today)*

*Where:  *Allan Waters Family Auditorium (Room 209) of the Li Ka Shing
Knowledge Institute located at 209 Victoria Street, Toronto ON, Canada M5B
1T8.* *



Led by Dr. Abhijit Das from the Centre for Health and Social Justice in
India, this workshop focuses on evaluation’s role in improving lives, and
argues that we need to incorporate local realities in evaluating
performance. Drawing from his experiences on the ground, Dr. Das will
explore how *local context *can be incorporated into performance
measurement and how evaluation systems can make a difference to health
inequities.



The respondents are *Michael Clarke* (Director of Global Health Policy at
IDRC), *Sanjeev Sridharan* (Director of the Evaluation Centre for Complex
Health Interventions at St. Mike's), and *Ibrahim Daibes* (Senior Program
Specialist at IDRC).



*Key Questions of the Workshop:*

·         How do we ensure results-based thinking can transform peoples’
lives?

·         What are the roles of community and individual rights in defining
performance, development and progress?

·         How do we move beyond globalized views of development and reframe
development from a local and community lens?

·         How do evaluation systems incorporate local context in their
definitions of performance?
