Evaluation and evidence

Education programme design and evaluation.

Independent analytical support for appraisal, monitoring and evaluation in TVET, skills development, higher education and education reform.

Approach

Evidence that supports decisions.

Evaluation is most useful when it produces a credible account of what is happening, explains why it is happening and translates the findings into decisions that programmes and institutions can act on. I combine analytical rigour with a practical understanding of education systems and implementation.

Depending on the assignment, work may include document review, stakeholder consultation, field visits, quantitative and qualitative analysis, theory-based assessment, validation workshops and concise recommendations for different decision-making levels.

Typical areas of contribution

  • programme appraisal and design missions
  • theories of change, results chains and indicator frameworks
  • baseline, mid-term and final evaluation
  • mixed-method research and stakeholder interviews
  • education data analytics and open-data assessment
  • quality assurance and evidence synthesis
  • facilitated reflection and validation workshops
  • clear reports for technical and senior audiences

AI-supported tools may be used selectively for transparent research or analysis workflows, while professional judgement, verification and responsibility remain human.
