Monitoring and Evaluation Learning Advisory Services on International Development Projects
Collaborative Learning and Adaptation - This approach of pause of Reflection has a set of systematic and intentional practices that help improve development effectiveness. Identify strategic collaboration, continuous learning, and adaptive management by linking together all components of the Program Cycle. Integrating CLA has helped to ensure that our programs are coordinated with others, grounded in a strong evidence base, and iteratively adapted to remain relevant throughout implementation. See the below figure to understand our approach in the CLA -Pause and Reflect approach which is guided by the below key questions: Collaborating: Are we collaborating with the right partners at the right time to promote synergy over stove-piping? Learning: Are we asking the most important questions and finding answers that are relevant to decision making? Adapting: Are we using the information that we gather through collaboration and learning activities to make better decisions and make adjustments as necessary? Enabling Conditions: Are we working to create an organizational environment that supports collaborating, learning, and adapting efforts?
