We presented at EES2024!
Between September 23th to September 27th, Steve Powell and Fiona Remnant were in Rimini, Italy, to present at the European Evaluation Society Conference. Causal Map participated in many different activities, from facilitating a workshop to doing a demo live. Check out the highlights.
Reflecting on an incredible EES Conference 2024!
First and foremost, a heartfelt thank you to all attendees, co-presenters, and the EES organising committee. Your engagement, insights, and support made this conference truly exceptional.
We were honoured to contribute to this collaborative learning experience. If you weren’t at Rimini, or missed our presentations, you can catch up on them here:
Professional Workshop
"Causal Mapping with Simple Tools" (Sept 23)
Led by Steve Powell and Fiona Remnant, this hands-on workshop equipped participants with practical skills in:
- Identifying causal data in reports and interviews
- Coding and analysing causal data
- Integrating causal mapping with other evaluation methods
- Using tools like Post-its, Excel, and our custom Causal Map app
💡Key-takeaways: there were participants from every aspect of evaluation, we learned a lot from them too about what role causal mapping can play in different contexts.
Paper presentation: Testing Qualia live!
"Qualitative approaches: Qualitative and case based approaches" (Sept 26)
- "Automated Interviewing with Qualia" by Steve Powell
💡Key-takeaways: This one was pretty scary because for the first time we had about 40 people in a room all being interviewed by Qualia all at once. It worked great, and more or less everyone in the room gave their useful feedback.
Panel presentations
"AI as a Partner for Outcome Harvesting – Benefits and Challenges" (Sept 27)
- "Talk to the bot: Automated interviews for Outcome Harvesting" by Kornelia Rassmann
- "Causal Mapping for OH Analysis" by Steve Powell and Heather Britt
💡Key-takeaways: it was great to work together with Konny and Heather to illustrate different ways we can help Outcome Harvesters with gathering and making sense of data.
Let's keep the conversation going! Connect with us to explore collaboration opportunities or to learn more about these exciting developments in our field.
