The Young Women for Awareness, Agency, Advocacy, and Accountability Palestine - MEL Under the YW4A programme KIT is responsible for designing the gender-transformative outcome Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) of the YW4A programme. The outcome MEL system and learning mechanisms are co-created with a young women reference group in each country. Young women have a key co-decision making role in the MEL design and as such they will play a critical role in contextualizing the MEL in lived realities of young women and harvesting collective learning around changes in behavior and practices of women’s rights organisations, faith-based organisations, state actors and young women groups throughout the project period.
KIT will also support the design of YW4A baseline studies and support outcome monitoring and learning at mid-term and end-line of the programme. In year 1 KIT lead the design and implementation of baseline studies on WROs advocacy and organizational capacities (pathway 1) and on young women’s leadership capacities (pathway 2). For both studies, staff from women’s rights organisations and young women participated in a facilitated self-assessment and participatory analysis workshops to establish their baseline situation. KIT also provided technical advice to consortium members for the implementation of the baseline studies for pathways 3 and 4.
