Schritt für Schritt zur Qualitätssicherung. Partizipative Evaluation am Beispiel des DED-Programms "Bildung trifft Entwicklung"
Der Beitrag befasst sich auf der Grundlage einer im Jahre 2007 im Auftrag des Deutschen Entwicklungsdienstes (DED) durchgefĂĽhrten Evaluation des regionalen Bildungsprogramms "Bildung trifft Entwicklung" mit dem Ansatz der partizipativen Evaluation. Nach einem Ăśberblick ĂĽber das evaluierte Programm und den Evaluationsauftrag sowie einem knappen theoretischen Exkurs werden die zentralen Schritte der praktischen Umsetzung dieses Ansatzes sowie sich dabei ergebende typische Herausforderungen und Chancen fĂĽr einen partizipativen Evaluationsprozess aufgezeigt. (DIPF/Orig.)Taking the evaluation of the programme "Bildung trifft Entwicklung" of Deutscher Entwicklungsdienst (DED) as example, the article deals with the approach of participative evaluations. After an introduction of the programme and the evaluation tasks, a short chapter outlines central aspects of participative evaluations. This is followed by a description of the concrete steps which were taken in the evaluation of the programme. The final chapter sums up typical challenges and opportunities occurring in the process of a participative evaluation. (DIPF/Orig.
Wirkungsorientierung in der entwicklungspolitischen Inlandsarbeit
For several years now, the demand for increased impact orientation has also affected the field of Global Education (GE) / Development Education and Awareness Raising (DEAR). In this context, a vivid discussion is still ongoing regarding what can be considered an ›impact‹ in GE/DEAR and how these impacts can be analysed. Both questions are dealt with within the scope of the research project ›Impacts and methods of impact monitoring in development education and awareness raising‹, which was financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and which is to be presented in this volume. Against the backdrop of the empirical findings of this research project, this publication shows which effects can be targeted in the planning and evaluation of GE-/DEAR-projects and which contextual conditions can influence their effectiveness.

Une inhumation sous tumulus de l’âge du Bronze et une occupation de la fin du Néolithique à Gonesse, La Fosse aux Larrons (Val-d’Oise)
International audienceA rescue excavation was launched after a tumulus with a stone lining, containing a central inhumation was accidentally exposed by construction work in the Crould valley, north of Paris, in 1976. The various environmental studies (geoarchaeology, malacology, palynology) made it possible to reconstruct the evolution of the landscape during the Subboreal in relation with successive human occupations. Stratigraphy shows that the first occupation is characterized by a partially preserved archaeological layer containing pottery, lithic and faunal remains. Artifacts of the same nature were found in the tumulus, the construction of which had partly destroyed the earlier occupation. The study of the monument revealed that a circular ditch was used to provide sediments for a central core, surrounded by a lining of stones covered by a layer of soil, itself overlain by a thin organic level. The centre of the monument contained a male burial with no grave goods. A detailed anthropological analysis was undertaken of this individual. According to 14C dates, environmental analyses and the study of the artifacts, the occupation most likely dates to the beginning of Final Neolithic and the building of the tumulus to the transition between the Early and Middle Bronze Age.Découvert fortuitement en 1976 suite à un décapage industriel, un tumulus à couronne de pierres comportant une inhumation centrale a fait l’objet d’une fouille de sauvetage. Situé dans la vallée du Crould au nord de Paris, les diverses études environnementales (géoarchéologie, malacologie, palynologie) ont permis de restituer l’évolution du paysage durant le Subboréal et l’insertion des occupations humaines successives. La stratigraphie révèle une première implantation caractérisée par une couche archéologique partiellement conservée comportant des vestiges céramiques, lithiques et des restes de faune. Des artefacts de même nature se retrouvent dans la constitution du tumulus édifié ultérieurement en partie au détriment de cette occupation initiale. L’étude du monument montre en effet un creusement périphérique destiné à collecter des sédiments pour former un noyau central ceinturé d’une couronne de pierres recouverte d’une chape de terre elle-même surmontée d’un mince niveau organique. Au centre se trouvait un inhumé de sexe masculin dépourvu de mobilier, objet d’une étude anthropologique détaillée. Les datations 14C, les analyses environnementales et l’examen du mobilier concordent pour situer avec vraisemblance les restes d’habitat au début du Néolithique final et l’édification du tumulus à la charnière de l’Âge du Bronze ancien et moyen
Le quartier de l’Arsenal à Metz (Moselle) : topographie urbaine et évolution architecturale durant l’Antiquité
International audienceThe district of the Arsenal in the south-west of the town has recently been the subject of two extensive rescure excavations over a 5,000 sq. metres area. Due to a significant amount of levelling work in the 19th century, the most revealing results concern the years between the 1st and 3rd centuries.It has, thus been possible for the first time in Metz to understand the layout of the parcels of land and its development over nearly a third of an insula. A settlement made up of distinct plots around 10 metres in size, facing the street, was followed by a larger estate in the 2nd century, totally occupied by a vast domus. The preliminary study of organic traces found in the gutters of the streets looks promising and should, above all, lead to a better understanding of the way rubbish was dealt with in the urban area. Finally the find of four streets and a ditch from a fifth one considerably adds to our knowledge of the organisation of the district. In conjunction with evidence from former excavations, it is now possible to trace an original system, seemingly different from the orthonormal network of the town centre and which cannot just be explained by the rather hilly relief of the site.Le quartier de l'Arsenal, situé au sud-ouest de la ville, a fait l'objet de deux fouilles de sauvetage récentes sur une surface cohérente de 5 000 m2. En raison d'importants travaux de nivellement au XIXe s., les résultats les plus significatifs concernent les Ier-IIIe s. Il a ainsi été possible, pour la première fois à Metz, d'appréhender le parcellaire et son évolution sur près du tiers d'un îlot. A un habitat constitué de lots distincts d'environ 10 m de large, appuyés sur la rue, succède au IIe s. une propriété plus grande, entièrement occupée par une vaste domus. L'étude à titre expérimental des traces organiques présentes dans les caniveaux de voirie s'avère prometteuse, et devrait notamment permettre de mieux comprendre la gestion des déchets en milieu urbain. Enfin la mise au jour de quatre rues et d'un fossé d'une cinquième renouvelle considérablement nos connaissances sur l'organisation du quartier. A la lumière des données de fouilles anciennes se dessine maintenant un système original, distinct du réseau vraisemblablement orthonormé du centre-ville, et que le relief assez accidenté du site ne peut à lui seul expliquer

Low incidence of SARS-CoV-2, risk factors of mortality and the course of illness in the French national cohort of dialysis patients
International audienceThe aim of this study was to estimate the incidence of COVID-19 disease in the French national population of dialysis patients, their course of illness and to identify the risk factors associated with mortality. Our study included all patients on dialysis recorded in the French REIN Registry in April 2020. Clinical characteristics at last follow-up and the evolution of COVID-19 illness severity over time were recorded for diagnosed cases (either suspicious clinical symptoms, characteristic signs on the chest scan or a positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) for SARS-CoV-2. A total of 1,621 infected patients were reported on the REIN registry from March 16th, 2020 to May 4th, 2020. Of these, 344 died. The prevalence of COVID-19 patients varied from less than 1% to 10% between regions. The probability of being a case was higher in males, patients with diabetes, those in need of assistance for transfer or treated at a self-care unit. Dialysis at home was associated with a lower probability of being infected as was being a smoker, a former smoker, having an active malignancy, or peripheral vascular disease. Mortality in diagnosed cases (21%) was associated with the same causes as in the general population. Higher age, hypoalbuminemia and the presence of an ischemic heart disease were statistically independently associated with a higher risk of death. Being treated at a selfcare unit was associated with a lower risk. Thus, our study showed a relatively low frequency of COVID-19 among dialysis patients contrary to what might have been assumed
