| IRS990ScheduleF/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | BATONGA FOCUSES ON MONITORING AND EVALUATION (M&E) ACTIVITIES FOR THE PURPOSE OF LEARNING AS WELL AS IMPROVING AND REFINING OUR PROJECT SCALE STRATEGY. THE FOLLOWING M&E ACTIVITIES ARE CARRIED OUT TO MEASURE AND MONITOR PROJECT EFFECTIVENESS AT OUTPUT AND OUTCOME LEVELS: THE GIRL ROSTER DIGITAL TOOL IS USED TO MEASURE KEY GIRL-LEVEL DATA TO INFORM PROJECT RECRUITMENT AND ESTABLISH A DENOMINATOR FOR PROJECT M&E PROCESSES. OUTPUT-LEVEL PROGRESS IS MONITORED THROUGH QUARTERLY REPORTS FROM FIELD STAFF TRACKING KEY OUTPUT-LEVEL INDICATORS (E.G., NUMBER OF CLUBS LAUNCHED, NUMBER OF FACILITATORS TRAINED, ETC.) AND QUARTERLY MONITORING VISITS BY PROJECT COORDINATORS INCLUDING OBSERVATION OF MENTOR FACILITATION OF THE GIRLS CLUBS. OUTCOME-LEVEL PROGRESS IS TRACKED THROUGH EXTERNAL LEARNING ASSESSMENTS CONDUCTED AT BASELINE AND UPON COMPLETION OF THE PILOT. THE ASSESSMENTS CONSIST OF QUALITATIVE METHODS THAT BUILD UPON THE DATA COLLECTED THROUGH THE GIRL ROSTER, INCLUDING KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS (KIIS), FOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONS (FGDS) AND A BRIEF ASSESSMENT (E.G., PRE-TEST/POST-TEST) WITH PARTICIPANTS IN SELECT GIRLS CLUBS TO ASSESS CHANGE AT THE LEVEL OF THE GIRL. |
