Decolonising evaluation requires a fundamental shift in mindset and practice. Evaluators can work towards more inclusive, equitable, and representative processes by centring local voices, valuing diverse knowledge systems, and addressing power imbalances.

The goal of the tournament is to promote local giving and raise Kes.5M to support five community projects.

There is a fine line to walk between managing big donor funding & accompanying communities in appropriate, sensitive, patient ways. Managing these power dynamics is a tricky balancing act, but it can be done. @KCDF @InfoAPN @WildeGanzenNL #KCDFat25 #ShiftThePower

"Community" is not a neutral space (there is division/divergent opinions) & there is a danger in romanticizing the idea. It can therefore be tricky to move communities beyond charity & mobilize local funds for social justice/human rights. But we must try! #KCDFat25 #ShiftThePower

Panel including @stillSHErises @WildeGanzenNL @KCDF & @globalfundcf showing importance of moving beyond institutional egos, logos & siloes. Alternatives to traditional development exist. We need to better organize amongst ourselves to #ShiftThePower & lift these up. #KCDFat25

Often, current funding systems looks at community organizations as contractors as opposed to partners. Need to nurture true partnerships and appreciate the contributions of communities @KCDF @KCDFat25 @ShiftThePower_ @GivingForChange @NguzoAfrica

For @elizaphan, #ShiftThePower means questioning the status quo in development. It is part of the core strategy of @NguzoAfrica. Though it's a marathon to build trust: must overturn the idea that "communities don't have capacity." #KCDFat25

When crises happen it is local orgs like @KCDF that matter says @hodgsonjj. They're critical in terms of holding up democratic values & ensuring citizen participation/voice. They provide the architecture so people can organize around the future they want. #ShiftThePower #KCDFat25

True what @stillSHErises has said. Bilateral funding shapes the funding priorities often creating a contradiction to shifting the power narrative @KCDF @KCDFat25 @GivingForChange @ShiftThePower_
