Public Policy Evaluation Questions
The role of stakeholders in the evaluation process is to provide input, feedback, and expertise to ensure that the evaluation is comprehensive, accurate, and relevant. Stakeholders can include individuals or groups who are directly affected by the public policy being evaluated, such as government officials, policymakers, community members, advocacy groups, and experts in the field. Their involvement helps to ensure that the evaluation takes into account diverse perspectives, considers the needs and interests of different stakeholders, and ultimately leads to informed decision-making and policy improvements. Stakeholders may participate in various stages of the evaluation process, including defining evaluation objectives, providing data and information, reviewing findings, and offering recommendations for policy changes or adjustments.
