EVENT SUMMARY

With more than 90 attendees from 80 organizations, New Frontiers in International Development Monitoring was a great first step in convening a broad group of individuals interested in the future of monitoring. A full summary of the day’s events can be found at the link below. Thank you to all who attended, and keep an eye out for information on future events!

agenda

Monitoring in international development is widespread, but often ill-defined and has rarely been subject to intellectual inquiry. Transparency, adaptability, and data-driven decision making are increasing priorities for international development donors, implementers, and third-party monitoring firms. The management, technological, and political realities require and deserve collaborative scrutiny to improve the state of the field.

Please join us for a day of discussion to elevate the practice of monitoring and promote improved cohesion between the monitoring, evaluation, and learning in international development.
