Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning
We work with you to capture and showcase the important outcomes of your work, while simultaneously applying insights to strengthen the work moving forward. Towards that end, we design and implement monitoring, evaluation, and learning plans using participatory techniques. Our specific strength lies in our experience engaging with complex programs that do not lend themselves to traditional evaluation approaches. Areas of evaluation experience include innovation and product development, research, advocacy, capacity building, and partnerships.
We use practical approaches to identify what is or is not working. Our approaches are creative, rigorous, and describe impacts felt across systems. We seek to capture a broad range of outcomes that demonstrate the results of your program and the positive value for your beneficiaries. Our final reports tell a compelling story backed by data. Our recommendations provide actionable next steps for course correction and improvement.

Identifying and Expanding What Works
We distill evidence and experience into advocacy tools and practical guidance, so that your teams have the information and tools that they need to implement their advocacy and programs.
We support evidence-informed policy and programs and the scale-up of successful practices. Sustainable change happens when the entire health system is taken into consideration. We also consider approaches that have proven successful in other sectors and match challenges with appropriate solutions.

Strategic Planning and Implementation
We advise teams on strategic planning and implementation at a programmatic and/or institutional level. Because a strategy should not be something that sits on the shelf, our work also includes the day-to-day activities that go into making a strategy successful, such as communications, business development and diversification, and technical leadership.
We help our clients by first asking questions and listening closely. We review the existing landscape and identify areas of momentum and remaining gaps; leverage solutions from across sectors; and consider past efforts and future trends. We then support our clients to make informed decisions that help them put their plans into action. The resulting strategic plans are actionable and include credible, feasible measures of success.
