Resources to support and inspire better MEL among donors, grantees, and their partners, developed by a global grant-making team.
How can we make monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) work for grantees and donors? In 2017, the team leading MEL for the Open Society Foundations’ Economic Justice Program (EJP) set out to rethink traditional, donor-led approaches that, all too often, failed to serve anyone on either side of the relationship. The aim was to design an approach that instead prioritized grantee learning and long-term systems change.
This toolkit contains a wealth of monitoring and evaluation related tools and lessons.
