How can we measure development? In recent years, concerns regarding effective management and a result-oriented approach to development projects and programs have received enormous attention. The discourse has gained further momentum with the adoption of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Targets and Indicators. The quest for the impact of development interventions has been intensified as the message “Leaving No One Behind” gets loud and clear. Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation (PM&E) is an important process that enhances the relevance, effectiveness, and sustainability of development programs. It helps organisations and institutions improve their functioning.

With growing emphasis on showcasing impact, many practicebased organisations are seeking appropriate tools and methods to design and measure impact. The course “Measuring Development: Participatory Monitoring, Evaluation, and Impact Assessment” offers a range of conceptual and practical issues faced by the practitioners, adult educators, researchers, resource providers and policymakers in managing organisations and programs in a participatory manner.

The course focuses on providing conceptual knowledge and exposure to frameworks and processes for facilitating Participatory Monitoring, Evaluation, and Impact Assessment in the development project and/or organizational settings. The modules and activities facilitate critical analysis of different debates and perspectives on Participatory Monitoring, Evaluation, and Impact Assessment in a facilitative online learning environment.
