Expanding the Bench: Supporting Intersecting Movements Through Scholars of Color Networks
Expanding the Bench (ETB) is a core strategy of the Research, Evaluation, and Learning Unit at the Annie E. Casey Foundation, intended to increase the number of historically underrepresented researchers and evaluators of color. This session will focus on how ETB supports the BMOC field through an online evaluation training program. Underrepresented minorities, especially male scholars of color, offer an essential and valuable perspective to the BMOC field and the broader field of philanthropy, evaluation, and research, yet they don’t have equal access to opportunities in our sector. ETB’s online evaluation pipeline program, launching this fall, aims to build the capacity of these scholars of color while leveraging their unique voices and experiences.
