Kenya hosts Twende Team
Last week, a Twende Mbele team missioned to Kenya and were hosted by the Monitoring and Evaluation Department (MED) in the National Government. The main objective was assessing how Kenya and Twede Mbele and move forward together.
Over the years, inadequate M&E capacity has been a challenge in Kenya. To address this, the MED – in partnership with various universities – developed M&E curricula for certificate, postgraduate diploma and Master’s degree courses. In addition, the MED and the Kenya School of Government, developed County Result Based M&E systems at the devolved structures. Universities and other research service providers are also supplying many of the evaluators, particularly where sophisticated research methodologies are needed, eg for impact evaluations, and undertake research which is closely allied to evaluation, and can help to inform research process.
