PrintStone Soup: The Atlas of Organizations
Minutes from March 27 Telecon
Participants: Bob Downs, Jonathan Blythe, Carol Meyer, Ana Prados, Cathy Vaughan
We discussed a range of ideas for the summer meeting, including a follow-on evaluation workshop. We could engage with different case studies, discuss different kinds of projects, or evaluate a part of ESIP? We could also have a structured discussion regarding different methodologies used for different projects. Round table, unstructured but facilitated discussion on what different people are doing to evaluate their projects, programs, etc. 90-minute breakout session.
ACTIONS: Carol will put together some initial ideas and share this with the group; we will also arrange a phone call with Josh.

Minutes from January 23, 2013
The group discussed the evaluation workshop at the recent winter meeting, and what to do next. Some possibilities include:
- the same kinds of workshop, on different topics (metrics, surveys, etc)
- shorter workshops on the same topic
- evaluation workshops tailored to specific cluster groups
- evaluating ESIP
We also discussed the possibility of recording evaluation workshops and making them more widely available, using the data managment course as a model to provide reusable content.

WINTER MEETING
We are exploring a practical session in which participants can work through logic models for proposals. Carole has suggested that Bob Michner has some experience with this and might be a good speaker. We could also have a half-day working session, possibly with Josh Joseph. We will try to make sure we don't compete with plenary sessions or leave it to the last day; we will also try to tie our session in with the overall conference theme.
DISASTERS TOOL
We discussed the possibility of organizing current information on earth science and disasters, making information more accessible to disaster risk managers who may want to use that information for decision making. To facilitate this, Ana will reach out to Frank Lindsey & Dave Jones; Cathy will reach out to the Red Cross. We will connect again on the next call and maybe have an idea to try to sell the idea at the winter meeting.
