Open Training course in Advanced Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation

On 9-13 June, INTRAC will be running this year's Open Training course
in Advanced Participatory Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E), like last
year located on Issyk-Kul. If you are thinking of attending or
sending someone from your organisation, please write to us quickly
since this course is usually fully booked.

This year we are slightly raising the level of the course, as usual
focusing on qualitative data collection and analysis, and including
some aspects of longer term impact assessment. The workshop will be
led by an experienced trainers team led by INTRAC counsultant Lola
Abdusalyamova (Uzbekistan). The course will run bilingually in Russian
and English according to ther needs of the participants. INTRAC is
actively involved in debates around M&E as any of you who read our
bulletin ONTRAC will know. Thus ONTRAC No.37 entitled "Rethinking
M&E" raised the issue of how to combine the increasing "managerialism"
of development institutions, on the one hand, and the need to
"prioritise users' interests and needs" on the other. Our workshop
looks at both sides of this dilemma - the efficient collection and
analysis of data, and also the aspect of participation.

INTRAC Central Asia Programme is carrying out a strategy review of its
work this summer and autumn. If you would like to contribute to this
in any way, please contact on charlesb@intrac.kg (Charles Buxton). In
the week of 22 September we hope to be running a Round Table on
capacity building for civil society in Central Asia. We hope that
representatives of international and local NGOs alike will attend this
event. More details later.


INTRAC is a non-profit organisation working in the international
development and relief sector. We support non-governmental
organisations (NGOs) and civil society organisations (CSOs) around the
world by helping to explore policy issues, and by strengthening
management and organisational effectiveness.
