aes18 International Evaluation Conference

Anne Markiewicz (Anne Markiewicz and Associates)

This session will consider a range of ethical dilemmas faced by evaluators in their evaluation practice. The context for ethical evaluation practice will be set through a short introductory presentation that outlines the four foundation ethical principles of respect, relevance, responsibility and reciprocity. This presentation will be followed by consideration of a number of scenarios where ethical dilemmas exist in each of the four 'R' areas. The presentation of four scenarios will then be followed by opportunities for members of the audience to pose their own ethical dilemmas from their practice experiences. 

This session will be highly interactive as common evaluation challenges and dilemmas are identified and responses to ethical dilemmas are discussed and considered.
