The Peacebuilding & Development Institute has had to cancel two coures during Week 3 of the program. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our guest.
* Course I:
Building Monitoring and Evaluation into Program Operations
Instructor: Sarah Cohen Wood
This training will provide participants with the opportunity to analyze and understand the role that M&E plays in shaping three projects in conflict affected countries. Participants will work with these projects and design their own M&E framework. At the end of the course participants will have the opportunity to compare their work with donor funded projects and successful M&E frameworks currently used in conflict contexts. The course will focus heavily on participatory approaches to M&E and will also address the complexity of measuring change in conflict dynamics, identifying reasonable measures of impact, and working with local populations to achieve results. A special emphasis will be placed on conflict sensitive M&E approaches and the importance of conflcit analysis and information when designing work in conflict zones.
This training course will be highly interactive in nature and incorporate “real-time” interventions that may be impacted by some of the decisions participants make. Participants will also have the opportunity to meet with some folks from the implementing Agencies and talk about the challenges on the ground related to M&E.
