Dear IHD staff,

As part of your work, do you sometimes encounter challenges with your surveys, your M&E plans, or your research?  Are you interested in reflecting in your projects the latest methods and techniques in these areas?  If so, you may be interested in joining IHD’s Community of Excellence (COE) in Research, Monitoring, and Evaluation.  This new initiative will aim to:

·         Improve dissemination to IHD staff of information on innovative and rigorous approaches to M&E and research in our field of work;

·         Strengthen the skills of our M&E staff around the world through webinars on specific methods, targeted provision of short term technical assistance, and exchange of information on our best practices.

Please email Elizabeth Magnusson if you’d like to be included in the group.  The COE is there to help you—please join.

Thank you.
