Community Led MERL Resources
Who gets to evaluate?
For too long, communities, especially the most marginalised, have been the subjects of evaluation, not its owners. When communities lead design, monitor, and evaluate the programmes that affect their lives, the findings carry weight and the evidence drives action. That means evaluators stepping back: understanding local social structures, values, and leadership, and letting power flow to the people who know their context best.
This resource library is here to help. Browse and contribute practical tools, methodologies, and case studies oriented toward three goals: more communities recognising their role in evaluation; funders and policymakers commissioning evaluations where communities are co-actors; and citizens developing the evaluative thinking to demand evidence-based change.
Find a resource. Share one. Help shift the power.
