about the studio

Eval Design Studio is an ambitious project aiming to transform evaluation and learning.

Why a "design studio"? Although design is a process of creation, good design also has the power to challenge and erode conventions, correct historical wrongs, and dismantle unjust systems.


We work in concert with artists and activists to co-design resources, spaces, and experiences people can use to understand complexity, solve problems, and build more just futures.

our values

artistry

We recognize artistry as an inherent human ability. We harness artistry to promote healing and erode systems of injustice.

intention

We believe meaningful change begins with conscious decisions. Before we act, we ask: why, for whom, and what's at stake.

accountability

We choose to be better for ourselves, our communities, and the planet. We inspect our decisions, own mistakes, and build on what works.

relationality

We appreciate the intrinsic value of all the Earth’s inhabitants. We show gratitude for the Earth and are agents of sustainable life.

disruption

We prioritize working collaboratively with the historically wronged, shifting power to ensure their needs are addressed and their aspirations realized.

As a progressive and values-driven team, we encourage everyone to read our core commitments, causes, and organizational boundaries.
