Project Summary:
The Middle East and North Africa Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning Services (MENA MELS) Activity delivers high-quality technical support for monitoring, evaluation, and learning to the Middle East Bureau, its ten field missions, operating units, and implementing partners. Project services include monitoring systems, evaluations, assessments and research; analysis and synthesis; learning and utilization; and MEL capacity building and training. Additional information on the MENA MELS Project is available here. Under MENA MELS, the MSI team will facilitate a final learning event for USAID/Morocco's Inclusive Civic Education (ICE) program. USAID designed ICE to promote citizen participation and engagement in civic life, particularly focusing on women, youth, and persons with disabilities (PWD). Additionally, ICE aimed to improve the ability of Moroccan political institutions to inclusively meet the needs of the Moroccan people. Now that the ICE program has ended, MSI and USAID will bring together the staff from the organizations who implemented ICE along with USAID staff to capture lessons and good practice and make sense of what ICE has achieved. The output from this exercise will be a learning report (in lieu of an external evaluation). This two-day event will take place on the 15/16 July in Tangier.
