Abstract
Too often in the arts, projects are undertaken without clearâcut aims and ways of assessing whether these aims are accomplished. With regard to âArt for Social Changeâ projects, it is not difficult to identify activities that might be labelled âdishonestâ, âillâconceivedâ or even âunethicalâ. It is argued here that it is possible, and necessary, to set clear aims, and also to devise effective assessment strategies. It is essential for artists to embrace evaluation in order to help them improve and better understand their work. 1.
