How successful have other people’s Multisectoral Collaboration
projects been? How did they measure their success? These resources
explain how other people have evaluated themselves, and how
you can use these tools yourself. Just click to read!
Evaluating Collaboratives - Reaching the
Potential (USA)
This guide
to evaluating collaborative projects from the University of Wisconsin offers a nice change
from most evaluation guides: it suggests questions to ask
at each stage of the collaborative process, instead of at
the end of the process. It regards evaluation as a collaborative
process in itself, one which can deepen ties between actors
and enhance learning. At 190 pages, it’s more detailed
than some people will need, but it’s a very useful guide.
Wilder Collaboration Factors Inventory
(USA)
Here you can take a forty-question online
quiz to give you an instant score on your organization’s
level of collaboration. It’s based on the Amherst H. Wilder
Foundation’s research into Multisectoral
Collaboration. You’ll be rated based on their twenty
factors of successful collaboration, with individual scores
for factors like flexibility, skilled leadership, communication,
and more.
Self-Evaluation: Assessing Your Collaboration (USA)
A very basic collaboration scoresheet, this tool
from Journal of Extension poses a simple list of questions and scores the answers based
on your responses. It’s scored strictly on individual
opinion, but as a concise, basic evaluation, it’s a
helpful starting place.
