Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning for Digital Programmes

OECD-DAC evaluation criteria, theory of change, and the attribution challenges specific to digital and multi-channel development programmes.

About this course

Digital development programmes - a mobile literacy campaign, an e-government rollout, a digital-inclusion pilot - are notoriously hard to evaluate well, because usage data is abundant but outcome attribution is hard. This course builds the MEL foundation (OECD-DAC criteria, theory of change vs. logframe, baselines and counterfactuals) and then addresses what is specifically different about MEL for digital programmes: multi-channel attribution, the usage-vs-outcome indicator gap, and adaptive management for programmes that can - and should - change based on what the data shows. Completing all modules earns a Mafichoni certificate of completion. Designing an evaluation for a digital programme? Mafichoni's assessments team designs and runs MEL frameworks - book a discovery call.
