Notes

"This paper challenges the obsession with outcomes as part of the current preoccupation with accountability. The paper recognizes and concurs with the importance of setting and trying to meet clearly defined targets. But it argues that many crucial and equally important developments inadvertently can be overlooked in the quest to quantify" -- p. 2"This story is about Opportunities 2000 (OP2000), a community-based project to reduce poverty in Waterloo Region [...] launched in 1998 by the Lutherwood Community Development Association" -- p. 3
