About the webinar

This Webinar is the second session on the topic of “Evidence based decision making for M&E professionals and Program Managers working in humanitarian or development operations”. It is a one-hour session ideal for Monitoring and Evaluation professionals or Program Managers who are interested in learning more about practicing evidence-based decision making and a follow-up to the previous session “Quality and use of evidence for M&E professionals and Program Managers”.

During this session, we discuss:

• Pathway from data collection to data use and learning and how this is associated with the project life implementation circle?
• The importance of planning for data use: the enabling factor at the project design and launch phase
• How MEAL system design enables evidence-based decision making?
• How the learning plan and the establishment of Feedback, Complaint, Response, Mechanism (FCRM) contributes to this end?
• Project implementation: best practices that improve evidence-based adaptive management, project decision-making and learning
• The importance of a data analysis plan and light monitoring techniques
• The importance of data interpretation workshops and projects review meetings
