Today we explored the principles, practices & values of gender transformative evaluation. We delved into frameworks for gender evaluation & the positionality of evaluators. We asked, should all evaluations at least be gender sensitive? @denalomo SheridanLeeMentor #MELBootcamp’24

What is the most convincing argument you heard about RCT? Quantitative design for measuring Impact ( Experimental and quasi- experimental design) @ProfSarahChapman

MEL plans are a practical way to ensure you have data for insights, when u need them. In module 3, @cathychames & Miriam Chikwanda @Hearts30th facilitated an interactive session on systematising MEL in your organisations. A big message is keep it simple & build on what you have

Day 2 of MEL Bootcamp ‘24 is complete. We explored the value of the Theory of Change approach for strengthening social impact, and practiced the logical links for pathways of change. An engaging session was run by @elenamancebo , @sheridanleementor, produced by @AdeleChaplain
