Programme Theory Evaluation, Multicriteria Decision Aid and Stakeholder Values: A Methodological Framework

Evaluation, Volume 12, Issue 4, p.397-417 (2006)Keywords:
evaluation methodology; multicriteria decision aid; programme theory evaluation; rural development; stakeholder valuesAbstract:
Nowadays there are a number of evaluation approaches that specifically focus on the elicitation of stakeholder values. Multicriteria decision aid enables evaluators to go one step further by systematically showing how different stakeholder values would affect evaluative outcomes and subsequent policy decisions about a programme's future. This type of technique can greatly benefit from being embedded in a programme theory evaluation methodology. Taking into account lessons from the literature on stakeholder values in evaluation, a methodological framework combining elements of programme theory evaluation and multicriteria decision aid is presented. The framework is illustrated by means of an example.
