From October 16th to 20th, 2023, HDFF conducted a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning
training at the Gold Orchid Hotel in Bangkok. The training focused on monitoring and
evaluation in development projects. Participants hailed from various countries, including
Bangladesh, South Korea, Ethiopia, the Philippines, China, Indonesia, and Thailand.
To provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of monitoring and evaluation,
the training covered not only these topics but also other relevant areas in project
management. After a brief introduction from each participant to better understand their
background, the training commenced with a discussion on leadership in project
management. Subsequently, an extensive segment on logframe analysis (LFA) followed.
LFA is crucial not only for project management but also for monitoring and evaluation. To
ensure that participants grasped the LFA concept, a case study was introduced, and
participants were tasked with creating the LFA for the case study. As a complementary topic
to enhance understanding of LFA, a safety and security module was also provided.
Following the conclusion of the LFA segment, the training proceeded with a discussion on
monitoring and evaluation planning, where participants were tasked with creating a
monitoring and evaluation plan for the provided case study. Additionally, participants
received basic training on budgeting to better understand how M&E may influence the
budgeting process. Lastly, there was information about the future of M&E, including the
potential use of blockchain technology in M&E.
HDFF expresses its gratitude to all the participants for their enthusiastic involvement and
wishes them the best in their future endeavours.
