The FaIR Evaluation Framework: Embedding evaluation in the design of services.

The Family Inequalities Research team at Born in Bradford have spent the last decade working with commissioners and service deliverers on the evaluation of community based early years services. 

The learning from this period has been condensed into the FaiR Evaluation Framework – a website based toolkit which guides you through a process of service design that embeds evaluation from the start. The website provides a service design process, developed in collaboration with partners, that can be applied to any intervention. It offers tools and templates which provide a strong foundation for evaluation and that have been tried and tested in real world delivery.

Sara will introduce the website and describe its development and application. The presentation offers an opportunity to find out more and ask questions as the website officially launches on 9th November.
