Participants will explore the significance of impact assessment, gaining insights into various methodologies and tools that can be employed to evaluate program effectiveness. Through engaging presentations, group activities, and case study analyses, attendees will learn to identify key impact areas, apply both quantitative and qualitative approaches, and utilize practical assessment tools such as surveys and logic models. The workshop will also highlight best practices and successful examples from diverse contexts, providing a rich understanding of what contributes to effective impact measurement. In the final session, participants will collaboratively develop actionable impact measurement plans, fostering peer learning and immediate application of workshop concepts.
