This paper from the Aotearoa New Zealand Evaluation Association (ANZEA) outlines the purpose, use and principles behind the evaluator competencies developed to ensure cultural values are placed at the forefront of evaluation practice.
Excerpt
"The competencies have emerged from work undertaken by anzea from 2009 to 2011. A working group has reviewed the literature, local and international to date evaluator competency literature précis brought together a caucus of evaluators from a range of sectors and roles, and held regional consultations with its membership and the international evaluation community during 2010. The development of evaluator competencies is part of anzea’s strategy to promote and facilitate the development of quality evaluation practice in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), underpinned by the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi." (ANZEA 2011)
