As part of the NEAR project, a series of agency-focused workshops and agency-based consultations were conducted for the Department of Human Services and Community and Women's Health agencies. These have explored the application of narrative evaluation and action research methodologies for the purpose of evaluating Integrated Health Promotion programs. In 2005 the collaborators provided mentoring consultancy and/or tools to support the participating staff in 10 agencies who chose to write narratives as a central part of their organisational planning, evaluation and reporting cycles for the year.

This project was carried out by University collaborators Yoland Wadsworth from Swinburne University, Gai Wilson from LaTrobe University and Ani Wierenga from the AYRC.
