International Institute for Educational Planning (IIEP)/UNESCO Oct 2007
InterWorks co-facilitated two Monitoring and Evaluation workshops in Abbottabad, Pakistan on 22-25 October and 29 October-1 November 2007.
Working with UNESCO and district education officials in Pakistan, InterWorks designed and facilitated Educational Planning and Management workshops for senior managers in the earthquake-affected areas of North West Frontier Province and Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The workshops focused on emerging planning and management needs faced by district officials as a result of the October 2005 earthquake that destroyed thousands of schools in these areas.
This workshop was the third in a series of planning and management workshops for district educational managers in the earthquake-affected districts of AJK and NWFP. The goal of the workshop was to contribute to the overall goal of “build back better” and to provide an opportunity for district managers to discuss their roles and responsibilities with regard to monitoring and evaluation. Academic supervision, an important monitoring function, was one of several monitoring concepts discussed in this workshop. The workshop also provided managers with the knowledge and skills needed to more effectively monitor and evaluate education projects in their districts..
This workshop was very beneficial and informative and links very much with our job description.
