Monitoring, Evaluation, Research & Learning (MERL)
Monitoring is an ongoing process that tracks progress against expected results, while evaluation is a more comprehensive assessment that is typically conducted at key points during or after an intervention to assess its overall effectiveness and impact.
With Monitoring, Evaluation, Research & Learning (MERL), We work with development partners and businesses to manage the data that is produced from their activities; analyze it over time to come up with inferences that will inform on the results of the work and for replicability/ learning where necessary
