- MEAL frameworks, databases and learning agendas
- Baselines, mid-term reviews and final evaluations
- Theory of Change–based approaches
- Agile MEAL for humanitarian and crisis contexts
What we do
We design and operationalise monitoring, evaluation, accountability and learning systems that support effective decision-making from day one.
Development of MEAL tools and systems, including frameworks, databases, accountability plans and learning agendas embedded from project design.
Data-driven reporting across the project cycle, from baseline assessments to mid-term reviews and final evaluations, generating insights for real-time decision-making.
Implementation of MEAL processes, including data collection, independent evaluations, team training and facilitation of learning processes to strengthen future outcomes.
Theory of Change–based approaches for development programmes, linking activities to outcomes and impact.
Agile, fit-for-purpose MEAL methodologies for humanitarian and crisis contexts, enabling rapid tracking of results and adaptive decision-making.
