Dear AdaptDev members,
We have an exciting upcoming event on Monitoring and Evaluation for Thinking and Working Politically by the TWP Community of Practice.
Title: Monitoring and Evaluation for Thinking and Working Politically
Hosted by: TWP Community of Practice
Facilitators: Florencia Guerzovich and Tom Aston
Date: 11 December 2024
Time: 10:00AM EST/15:00PGMT
Location: Zoom
The aim of this event is to reflect on how those involved in thinking and working politically approaches go about monitoring and evaluating those efforts, in ways that appreciate the complexities involved.
Our starting point is that this is not only a methodological challenge, but also one that requires connecting advances in monitoring, evaluation and learning for TWP and other complex problems with the operational realities, opportunities and constraints set by the organisations and systems that development practitioners and M&E specialists inhabit (including silos across practices and networks).
We are convening colleagues to share insights on the following questions:
- In practice, what kinds of stories are development practitioners telling about the difference TWP can make in helping to, among other things, analyse contexts, identify entry points, prioritise engagement, and use that knowledge to manage relationships and/or foster coalitions for change?
- How are practitioners using those insights to do their work better and mainstream TWP principles within their own organisations and in their engagement with other partners?
The discussion will be in the form of a fishbowl conversation, giving participants a chance to actively take part in the conversation.
You can register here.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Best regards,
Thandie Mujuru
