This report is designed to assist public managers with the evaluation of their citizen participation projects and programs. The report first explores the concept of direct citizen participation in public administration, broadly defined as "the process[es] by which members of a society (those not holding office or administrative positions in government) share power with public officials [e.g., agency managers and officials] in making substantive decisions" related to a particular issue or set of issues. The report then examines the importance of citizen participation, as well as the needs for and challenges of evaluating citizen participation. Next, the report provides a brief overview of the steps in program evaluation.
The report then turns to practical, non-prescriptive approaches for evaluating citizen participation. The report emphasizes the use of practical, ongoing strategies to plan, improve, and demonstrate the results of citizen participation, and specifically encourages the use of process and impact evaluations that are integrated with routine program operations.
Managers can use this report to help systematically think through the elements essential to evaluating citizen participation processes. The two types of evaluation presented in this report provide effective strategies for assessing citizen participation programs and have the potential to improve public managers' ability to envision and execute such evaluations.
