Empowerment evaluation is an approach to evaluation that is designed to facilitate participation, collaboration, and empowerment. There are many tools used to conduct an empowerment evaluation. A few technological tools of the trade are discussed in this presentation. They include: collaborative web sites, videoconferencing on the Internet, blogging, online surveys, Google Docs and Spreadsheets, and sharing digital photographs on the Internet. The overriding principle guiding the use of technologically-oriented tools is that they are in alignment with the principles of empowerment evaluation, fostering improvement, capacity building, and accountability.
