This two-day course will take participants through the process of designing an intervention with an accompanying monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system. Using a combination of presentations, discussions and participatory exercises, participants will gain practical experience. By the end of the course, participants will have mapped a project or program design and defined all the critical parts of the M&E System. This basic set of skills will be useful across sectors and specializations such as human rights, environment, education, trade, migration, conflict management, and security.
