Outcome measurement: Design of a social impact framework to measure shifts in the ecosystem for inclusion.
Assistive Technology : the Official Journal of RESNA 2024 April 4
Children with disabilities need comprehensive intervention spanning health, education, and social systems from infancy through adulthood, with ongoing assessment of outcomes. While assistive technology is crucial, it must be complemented by inclusive learning options and other systemic interventions. Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory guides this approach. A project in South Africa's Northern Cape Province utilized Acumen's Lean Data methodology for monitoring and evaluation. This methodology emphasizes rapid, technology-enabled data collection to inform stakeholders effectively. The project focused on disability awareness, referral systems, assistive technology provision, and early childhood development, adapting programs for various stakeholders and virtual delivery during COVID-19 lockdowns. Results underscored the interconnectedness of assistive technology with broader inclusion efforts and the importance of adaptability and continuous assessment. Further research is recommended to explore the project's role in fostering disability inclusion comprehensively. This ecosystemic approach highlights the necessity of holistic intervention and ongoing evaluation for sustainable social transformation and inclusion.
