Advocacy Evaluation Book Launch
Advocacy and Policy Change Evaluation: Theory and Practice, published by Stanford University Press, is the first book-length treatment of the concepts, designs, methods, and tools needed to conduct effective advocacy and policy change evaluations. The book provides a conceptual foundation for navigating advocacy tactics within today’s turbulent policy landscape; offers recommendations for developing appropriate evaluation designs and working with unique advocacy and policy change–oriented instruments; and turns toward opportunities and challenges in this growing field. The book launch featured remarks by the authors, Annette Gardner and Claire Brindis and a panel discussion by advocacy evaluation experts Julia Coffman, Sue Hoechstetter, and APEP’s David Devlin-Foltz.
