The Faster Forward Fund

Abstract

Description and explanation of the soon-to-be-created "Faster Forward Fund," which will be founded by Michael Scriven and will aim at supporting three approaches in the evaluation field: 1. To develop ideas that show promise for significantly accelerating the field of evaluation. 2. To give particular support to efforts that are outside the natural development of well-accepted paradigms or models. 3. To support those whose development shows significant signs of benefitting people or peoples with serious unmet needs (whether physical, social, economic, or political in other ways).
