Turning Data into Useful Information for Program/ Policy Improvements
(Keith Linard, Australia)
|
Monitoring and evaluation produces data that should help produce useful information for improving program and policy decisions. However, this is often a huge challenge. many M&Esystems produce lots of data but not necessary the right information for critical decision-making. The workshop is meant to guide participants on how to turn M&E data into useful information.

Moving from Outputs to Outcomes: How to move from a focus on the monitoring of activities to evaluation and assessment of outcomes and impact
(Burt Perrin, France)
|
Public sector performance monitoring typically focusses on outputs, activities, and input aspects. This workshop will demonstrate how to move towards monitoring of outcomes and impact. It will also highlight the challenges and pitfalls of working with outcomes and impact. Read more...CLICK HERE |

Using Outcome Hierarchies for Improved Development Planning, Budgeting, Monitoring & Evaluation
(Arunaselam Rasappan, (Malaysia) |
The workshop examines the typical challenges and issues for adopting an outcome-based development planning approach. The workshop will enable participants to develop and use an Outcomes Hierarchies tool within a multi-level program structure for improved development performance planning, budgeting and evaluation.

Designing and developing outcome-based sector development plans (Bernard Woods, Canada)
|
The design and development of sector plans that are outcome based can be a difficult process. Most results based management tools and techniques have been developed for project level application and cannot be easily extended to the sector level. In addition, there are questions of aligning projects and programs with sector results frameworks. The workshop will take participants through a hands-on process of developing outcome based sector development plans through a mixture of theory and practice. At the end of the workshop the expected outputs are: increased levels of knowledge and skills of the participants in the application of results based management at the sector level to create outcome based sector development plans.

Differentiating between and applying Monitoring & Evaluation under MfDR (Keith Linard / Jerry Winston, Australia)
|
This workshop takes participants through the dynamics of monitoring and evaluation under MfDR with a focus on how to differentiate and apply the "M" and the "E". Very often, the typical focus in many development planning and management is on the "M" rather then the "E". Learn more about how to work with the "M" and the "E" and to apply them prudently.
