The Government of Liberia, through the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection (MOGCSP), has kickoff an intensive Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Training for over 200 government employees under the Liberia Women Empowerment Project (LWEP).
The nine-day training targets staff of the Gender Social Inclusion unit of the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) and MoGCSP and gender coordinators from all fifteen counties, to strengthen their skills and knowledge in promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment across Liberia.
The training will cover essential topics to build institutional capacities for gender-focused initiatives. Key areas of focus include Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) System assessment, developing M&E Plans for the Street Children Project, and practical, on-the-job training to enhance monitoring throughout project implementation.
The program also includes a two-day MELKM (Monitoring, Evaluation, Learning, and Knowledge Management) strategy session with stakeholders and specialized training for county-level data collection, enabling Gender Coordinators and other participants to apply best practices in information management systems.
The training which is being held in phases takes place at Senneh Guest House along the Police Academy road in Paynesville.
