GLobe: All-Ireland Programme for Immigrant Parents. Final Evaluation Report

Abstract

In 2007, the Child and Family Research Centre, NUI Galway, was commissioned by the PMC to evaluate Globe: All Ireland Programme for Immigrant Parents. From 2007 ¿ 2009 a number of interim evaluation reports were submitted to the PMC on the development phase of the project and its resources. In 2009, following the extension of the project, the objectives of the evaluation were revised. These objectives, which underpin this final evaluation report, are as follows: 1. Examine and assess the pilot phase; 2. Examine and assess the uptake and use of the Information Packs by parents and practitioners; 3. Examine and assess the partnership working and development on a multi-sectoral and cross-border basis of the PMC, and more generally in meeting the needs of immigrant parents; 4. Examine and assess the mainstreaming of learning and good practice; and 5. Examine and assess the training/awareness raising and support of practitioners in delivering the programme.
