Making us whole again: Developing culturally appropriate, evidence driven evaluations for Indigenous sport organizations in Canada
Indigenous sport organizations in Canada currently struggle with providing sustainable programs. This lack of sustainability limits their ability to meet the needs and interests of the people they serve, especially the youth. This problem stems in part from the type of evaluations that are currently used to determine community needs and assess the programs they develop, including surveys and interviews. The purpose of this study is to address these existing problems by developing culturally appropriate, evidence driven evaluations that support the aims and objectives of Indigenous sport organizations in Canada. By working collaboratively with the Manitoba Aboriginal Sports and Recreation Council (MASRC), our team will provide new forms of evaluation for determining what Indigenous sport looks like. These new evaluative metrics, and the results they produce, will empower these Indigenous sporting communities to target their specific needs more effectively, especially relating to new and existing youth programs.
