Objective:
To evaluate how well the event supported SayPro’s overarching mission and strategic goals—such as fostering personal and professional growth, promoting community-building, and enhancing capacity development—through its content, delivery, and impact.
1. Reference SayPro’s Core Mission and Goals
Before evaluating alignment, clearly outline SayPro’s key strategic pillars. These typically include:
- Capacity Building and Skills Development
- Community Engagement and Collaboration

2. Evaluate Event Design and Content Alignment
Strategic Goal | Alignment Assessment |
---|---|
Skills Development | Were sessions focused on practical tools, knowledge, and growth opportunities? |
Community-Building | Did the event promote dialogue, collaboration, and peer networking? |
Leadership & Empowerment | Were youth voices, leadership opportunities, or empowerment stories featured? |
Innovation and Impact | Did the content reflect new ideas, digital transformation, or real-world application? |
3. Participant Feedback on Impact
Use survey data to assess:
- % of attendees who reported learning something new or useful
- **% who said the event inspired future engagement with SayPro or similar initiatives
- Quotes or themes that directly reference alignment with SayPro’s values (e.g., “This session empowered me to take initiative in my community”)

5. Community Engagement Outcomes

6. Gaps and Recommendations
Identify where alignment was weak or missing:
- Were any sessions off-topic or poorly attended?
- Did certain communities feel underrepresented?

Provide recommendations:
