Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi: Evaluation report 19-20
This evaluation of Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi’s activity was commissioned to understand stakeholder perceptions of the early impacts of the new strategic direction launched by the trust early in 2020. The evaluation was developed based on insights collected in interviews with 12 key stakeholders. The evaluation found that across the clear majority of Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi’s intended impact areas and outcomes, current activity appears to be delivering solid progress.
Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi: Ecosystem Analysis
We are developing a framework to measure progress against our outcomes. This framework will be informed by this report, produced for Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi on the current ecosystem. The report considers potential opportunities to strengthen and refine the existing ART strategic framework, with a stronger emphasis on impact areas/priority outcomes, and strategic investment and non-investment roles that ART may be well positioned to deliver.
