Outcome harvesting: Saferworld's approach

“Learning is a never-ending exercise”: sharing experiences of community peacebuilding

A learning event in Nairobi last month brought together partners, donors and representatives of institutions from across East Africa to share ideas and experiences around community peacebuilding. We spoke with several participants to about their main thoughts and takeaways from the event.

Designed and developed over seven years, Saferworld's approach to monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) helps us successfully adapt and advocate for change. We are now offering workshops to share this approach with other organisations looking to improve their own outcome-focused monitoring and learning systems.
