Burt Perrin lifetime membership award

On November 19, 2010, the Board of the European Evaluation Society awarded to Burt Perrin an honorary lifetime membership in EES in recognition of his exceptional contribution to our Society and to evaluation.

The preface to the motion that was unanimously endorsed by the Board stated:

“Burt Perrin is a founding member of the European Evaluation Society and has been a stalwart and tireless contributor to the development of EES and the evolution of evaluation in Europe and globally. He has selflessly and continuously given of his time, intelligence, insights, vast knowledge and considerable experience to further our Society and the quality of evaluation theory and practise. He embodies many of the ideals evaluation aspires to. Anyone who has had the opportunity to work with Burt or to spend time with him will recognise his boundless energy, his deep commitment to social justice, his modesty and his sense of humour.”

Congratulations Burt!
