Thursday 12 August (18:00 Bangkok time) - join the group video online call on Zoom using this link.
Topic: Learning from Every Experience - Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning
In preparation for the call, review section 7 (logframe) of your grant proposal document and give some thought to the kind of information that might be helpful to track progress towards your desired changes.

For August you have one task to work on as a team:
Work together as a team to develop Section #10. MONITORING, EVALUATION & LEARNING FRAMEWORK. Outline, in a simple table format, what you plan to monitor progress during the project, how you plan to conduct that monitoring (who, when, where, through what process) and how you aim to integrate that learning into your activities. Make sure you link back to your outcomes and outputs listed in your logframe. Click here to find your group folder, within which there is a google document set up for your team (note: you must be signed into the google account you provided when registering for the training to access the folder and file). Please make sure this section is completed by Saturday 21 August.
As a team, review Section #10 - MONITORING, EVALUATION & LEARNING FRAMEWORK of your assigned peer team's grant proposal. Click here to find their google document. As you read it through, highlight:
3 things you like about what they have written,
3 areas where you think they could strengthen/improve what they have written,
any questions you have about what is written.
To do this in google docs, highlight the text and then click on the 'text bubble' to the right of the page to add your comment.
Make sure this is completed by Saturday 28 August.
Watch this short video, reviewing some of the key aspects of this month’s topic. Then, as a team, review the comments received from your assigned peer team and spend some time revising your proposal based on the suggestions and questions raised.
Finally, to consolidate your learning this month, take some time to discuss the following two questions as a team:
What are your 3 key learning points from this month?
What one thing are you going to do now to grow/establish your capacity in this area?
