Webinar #6 will seek to explain why it is in the interest of African governments to adopt a Big Data approach to political and socio-economic ecosystems. Specifically, it will look at: - how Big Data can be used to better monitor and evaluate development plans - how they can improve the implementation of development objectives - why they can open up enormous economic and social opportunities for the African continent.
In a constantly changing world, innovation is the key to success. This article highlights how Le Baromètre, originally from Benin, brilliantly emerged as a winner of the GEI Launchpad, a 12-week pre-incubation programme designed to support start-ups in developing countries. This exciting adventure details how Le Baromètre, with its commitment to technology and evaluation, won the hearts of the programme's experts and mentors.
The Institut Africain de Suivi et Évaluation d'Impact des Politiques, Programmes et Projets de Développement (Le BAROMÈTRE) is organising a workshop for budding evaluators, aimed at pupils in the 6th to 12th grades, on the theme of "Introducing young people to monitoring and evaluation methods in the context of the SDGs". The aim of this training workshop is to introduce students from the 6th to the 12th grades to monitoring-evaluation methods, systemic thinking and an intuitive understanding of statistics. The workshop will take place in a playful atmosphere, with games and practical work, enabling participants to acquire knowledge in a concrete and fun way.
With the advance of technology and increasing digitalisation, digital devices are playing an increasingly crucial role, including in the field of monitoring and evaluation. They are used to produce, manage and analyse data, and to make evidence-based data accessible. They are also essential for storing and archiving data. For this reason, IT security and safety have become major concerns. In this webinar, the guest experts will explore the main threats facing digitised monitoring and evaluation systems and examine the measures that can be taken to protect them. Whether you're an M&E professional, a project manager or an average user concerned about the security of your data, this webinar will provide you with practical advice on how to protect yourself in this ever-changing digital environment. 📆: Thursday 22 June 2023 ⏱️: 12pm to 1:30pm (GMT) 📍: Google meet 👉To register: https://forms.gle/iRLrWBYKbRp8q8bP7
