You, too, can read the book!

Thank you to @agamoran and the @wtgrantfdn for hosting us today! We're grateful to collaborate with incredible partners on advancing actionable, equitable, and practitioner-centric evidence.

#EERS22 opening keynote! Old Story - New Story, and thinking about the importance of collaboration and continuous reflection and learning in order to meet the needs of the world we live in. @kfitzsimmons #ReflectonEval #Eval

This. All of this. Must read. “we risk a “tier-anny of evidence” that can perpetuate an inequitable distribution of resources & a skewed understanding of evidence building” https://t.co/BkEYR9RDyT via @project_evident @kfitzsimmons #equity #evidence #evaluation #AmeriCorps

What does the Next Generation Evidence Ecosystem look like? Kelly Fitzsimmons @ProjectEvident says that it is practitioner-centric & centered on community needs and voices. #EERS22 #Eval #EvalTwitter

.@kfitzsimmons at #EERS22: Practitioners should be at the center of the evidence ecosystem. Funders, communities, researchers, and policymakers should be doing their work in service of practitioners, because practitioners do the work to create change.

.@kfitzsimmons at #EERS22: Need to move #evaluation away from compliance and accountability to learning and actionability. #evaluation needs to move away from compulsory and toward collaboration. It needs to move away from funder-specific to practitioner-centric.

How can we generate and use #ActionableEvidence for practitioners, researchers, and policymakers? Join Project Evident and Dr. Elizabeth Albro @IESResearch next Thursday 7/29 at 4pm EDT for an interactive conversation around the opportunities IES sees:

Looking forward to an interactive and insightful discussion -- we hope you'll join us!

NEW: We're excited to share our #ActionableEvidence Framework, developed with input from more than 70 researchers, practitioners, funders, and policymakers committed to changing the way we generate and use evidence for stronger, more equitable outcomes. https://t.co/PqZXSGml6G

Learn how the partnership between @YearUp, @abtassociates, and @PennGSE – focused on improving academic success and retention of participants in Year Up’s Professional Training Corps – exemplifies an #ActionableEvidence approach:

I am beyond humbled and excited to be nominated by President Biden to lead @AmeriCorps, formerly known as the Corporation for National and Community Service. #AmeriCorpsWorks #WeAreMBK https://t.co/1qJV4cVd2h

Please spread the word about these remarkable teams (and when you do please help shift the culture by making them the subject of your story or comments)

We are incredibly grateful to @mackenziescott & Dan Jewett for their support, which will allow us to advance a #NextGenEvidence ecosystem that centers practitioners, strengthens data & evidence capacity, & incorporates equity into evidence building & use.

EEI's @jdeancoffey shares her thoughts with @NCRP on what philanthropy should look like in 45 years. "That hearts, minds + efforts are dedicated to our shared liberation, justice + equity + that it holds love of humanity as its core raison d'être ” : https://t.co/HvLDBNMGMd
