About This Project

Designed and implemented a complete MEAL framework for a development program.

The Challenge

The client was implementing a complex multi-sector development program across several regions but lacked a robust system to monitor progress, evaluate outcomes, and facilitate learning. They needed a comprehensive MEAL framework that could track indicators across different components while being user-friendly for field staff.

Our Solution

We designed a customized MEAL system that included a digital data collection platform, indicator tracking database, analysis dashboards, and learning mechanisms. We trained staff on data collection methods, analysis techniques, and reporting protocols, and provided ongoing technical support during implementation.

Results & Impact

Established a comprehensive MEAL framework with 120+ indicators across program components

Developed digital data collection tools that reduced reporting time by 60%

Created interactive dashboards for real-time monitoring of program performance

Implemented a systematic learning approach that improved program adaptability

Strengthened evidence-based decision making at all levels of program management

Client Testimonial

"The MEAL system developed by NOREN has transformed how we track and understand our program's impact. The dashboards and learning mechanisms have made data accessible and useful for all team members, not just M&E specialists."
