A document titled "A Practical Framework for Values-Based Leadership and Learning" from Dana Foundation. It outlines six principles for effective evaluation: treating values as testable, evaluating processes, applying findings beyond specific successes, involving program partners in evaluation, prioritizing trust, inclusion, and integrity, and committing to learning before accountability.
In her latest Presidentโs Perspective, Caroline Montojo shares how the Dana Foundation puts its organizational values into practice, building trust, accountability, and effective leadership in science philanthropy.
