AEA GRADUATE
EDUCATION DIVERSITY INTERNSHIP PROGRAM (GEDIP)
engage and support
students from groups traditionally under-represented in the
field of evaluation. The goals of GEDIP are to:
-
Expand the pool of graduate students of
color and from other underrepresented groups who have
extended their research capacities to evaluation.
-
Stimulate evaluation thinking concerning
underrepresented communities and culturally responsive
evaluation.
-
Deepen the evaluation profession’s
capacity to work in racially, ethnically and culturally diverse settings.
Interns may come
from a variety of disciplines, including public health, education, political
science, anthropology, psychology, sociology, social work, and the natural
sciences. Their commonality is a strong background in research skills, an
interest in extending their capacities to the field of evaluation, and a
commitment to thinking deeply about culturally responsive evaluation practice.
