‘Making Design, Monitoring, Evaluation, & Learning a prime objective’ is part of a webinar series on M&E and Ethics in the Digital Age which DME for Peace are hosting. DME for Peace is a global community of practitioners, evaluators, donors, and academics who share best and emerging practices on how to design, monitor, and evaluate peacebuilding programs. Through greater collaboration and transparency we hope to increase the effectiveness of the peacebuilding field.

Nick Oatley will share with the DME for Peace community the idea developed by ‘Team Treadstone’ to include a specific objective in the proposal narrative to ‘design performance monitoring and evaluation activities that captures results, informs learning and enables adaptive management practices’.

This idea focused on overcoming the problem of seeing M&E as an afterthought and resolving the tensions between M&E and program staff by building in M&E as an integral part of the program design and implementation. Team Treadstone’s goal is to create opportunities to engage program participants in evaluative activities throughout the implementation of the program by including a specific objective in the proposal that prioritizes M&E for the purposes of learning and adaptive management.

Nick will be joined by other members of Team Treadstone to share their thoughts on integrating M&E as a primary objective.
