Transformative change is needed if the world is to achieve the sustainable development goals. Such change requires attention to culture, ethics, and values. We discuss the need to be responsive to the voices of Indigenous scholars in terms of the assumptions that guide methodological choices in the evaluation of international initiatives. We describe an Indigenous paradigmatic framework and then narrow the focus to a Made in Africa approach to evaluation that is designed to redress the epistemic violence perpetrated by the use of a Western cultural lens to determine evaluation approaches.

非洲土著评估框架：解决认知暴力问题并为社会转型做出贡献

如果世界要实现可持续发展目标，就需要进行变革。这种变化需要注意文化，道德和价值观。我们根据指导国际倡议评估中方法选择的假设，讨论了对土著学者的声音做出回应的必要性。我们描述了一个土著范式框架，然后将重点缩小到非洲制造的评估方法，该方法旨在纠正使用西方文化视角确定评估方法而造成的认知暴力。
