Ensures that the evaluation is an ethical one, conducted with regard for the rights and interests of those involved.
propriety
Standards of Evaluation:
results should be provided to everyone involved, especially the community

accuracy
- the systematic collection of information about the activities, characteristics and outcome of programs to make judgements about the program, improve program effectiveness, and/or inform decisions about future program development.
Program Evaluation
Evaluation findings should be used both to make decisions about program implementation and to improve program effectiveness.
Program Evaluation
6 steps of program evaluation
- Engage stakeholders
2. Describe the program 3. Focus the evaluation design 4. Gather credible evidence 5. Justify conclusion 6. Ensure use of evaluation findings and share lessons learned
2 types of stakeholders:
those involved in the program and those affected by the program
