Session 1 – May 2023:
Pablo Sanchez and Francis Osei-Mesah from The Hunger Project facilitated a MEL 101 session for the next (Un)Learning Labs.
This session is part of MCLD’s (Un)Learning Labs. For the next several months, we will be questioning some of our existing notions of monitoring and evaluation, why we do it, how we do it, and for whom. At the same time, we will strengthen our capacities to support Community-led monitoring and evaluation through peer learning and proximate capacity strengthening over a number of focused sessions covering aspects ranging from framing a theory of change with communities to data collection, analysis, validation, and reporting back.
In this first session, we unpacked some basic concepts in monitoring and evaluation for organizations and members who do not have dedicated MEL staff, are less familiar with some of the technical jargon that accompanies MEL, or just want to be part of the journey from the start.
