VISION 2020 has worked hard to evaluate itself, as this report
card demonstrates. The report explains how progress was
measured in each project area, and what sort of results they’ve
seen. If you’re looking for a real-world example of
how community environmental restoration projects are evaluated,
this is a great example.

Environment Canada’s manual
for carrying out Environmental Restoration projects describes
the step-by-step process for communities, from needs assessment

you along the way. Its particular emphasis on measuring results
puts it in the “effectiveness” category.
