Humber Polytechnic International Development Institute fails to properly evaluate its $2 Million Kenya & Ethiopia STEM Education for Empowerment project
from Improving Development Evaluation
In this episode, Dr. Wand reviews the Humber Polytechnic International Development Institute (https://humber.ca/global/international-development-institute-idi) $2 Million Kenya & Ethiopia STEM Education for Empowerment project's Performance Measurement Framework (PMF). He concludes that Humber Polytechnic International Development Institute cannot make the claim that it has achieved 8 of the 9 expected Outcomes for the project since 18 out of the 19 outcome indicators are not valid measures of the Outcomes, or for the 1 valid outcome indicator fail to show the necessary statistical analysis that would support the project's claim that the outcome was achieved statistically significantly rather than due to chance.Details about the project can be found here: https://w05.international.gc.ca/projectbrowser-banqueprojets/project-projet/details/p007925001The PMF and Dr. Wand's critique are available by emailing [email protected] PMF and the critique will be shared with Humber Polytechnic along with an invitation for them to respond to the critique by attending a future podcast. It will also be shared with the Secretary of State for International Development as well as the shadow critics for all the opposition parties.To receive discounts for the purchase of sunglasses or polo shirts or travel bags/backpacks/wallets designed for the Global South use the following link:https://mydeals.page/1hjlDonate here: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/ZAQD8888DEDXLOr at buymeacoffee.com/davidwand to help the podcast.
