Fostering Evaluation Partnerships
Evaluation is an integral part of every CSPV project, ensuring that each initiative measures effectiveness and includes strategies for continuous improvement. CSPV uses participatory action research methods to empower our partners to be actively involved in every stage of the evaluation process, from data collection to action planning.
In addition to supporting our community and school projects, CSPV conducts independent evaluations for external organizations and partners. Program evaluation translates evidence to recommendations for action and helps to ensure optimal use of resources. Below, we highlight examples of CSPV’s current evaluation projects.
The data provided by CSPV offers essential insights that support improvements to school safety practices and training.
