Webinar | Feminist MEL & Most Significant Change (MSC): Uncovering New Approaches to Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning

As the field of Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) evolves, integrating feminist principles and participatory methods is becoming essential to creating inclusive and impactful programs. Approaches such as Feminist MEL and the Most Significant Change (MSC) methodology bring fresh perspectives, emphasizing not only the outcomes achieved but also how these align with the values of equity, inclusivity, and social justice. These methodologies empower communities to shape program assessment, leading to deeper insights and more meaningful impact.

This session will provide a comprehensive overview of how Feminist MEL and MSC can be applied together to create a more participatory and ethical approach to program evaluation. From understanding the core principles of feminist evaluation to implementing MSC with a feminist lens, this event will equip MEL practitioners and other professionals with actionable strategies to rethink and enhance their MEL practices.
