Participatory Evaluation by Urban Youth

FACILITATOR / EDITOR

In February 2022, I worked with my old friends at InsightShare to implement a participatory video evaluation project with 15 students from two schools in Manchester and London. A Participatory Video and Most Significant Change (PV MSC) process was designed to engage young people who completed Khulisa’s Face It programme in each school.

The objective of the project was to understand the experiences of young people who have been through the Face It programme, and harvest their recommendations for improvements. This project directly supports Khulisa’s ambition to deliver a youth-led programme that understands the needs of young people, and to design and adapt interventions informed by those needs. The video below is a compilation of clips from the videos created by the groups in Manchester and London.

 
It’s incredible that you have managed to get these young people to open up and to say what they have said. I think they said more in the video about their feelings and experiences than they have ever said in school before.
