WHAT WE DO
Research and evaluation
It is important to periodically assess and adapt your activities to ensure they envisioned results are achieved. Evaluation can help you identify areas for improvement and ultimately help you realize your goals more efficiently and effectively. The evaluation is a systematic and objective assessment of an ongoing or completed project or programme whereby we determine the level of achievement of the following:
