This blog is intended as a home to some musings about M&E, the challenges that I face as an evaluator and the work that I do in the field of M&E.Often times what I post here is in response to a particularly thought-provoking conversation or piece of reading. If you have anything interesting to add or if you are interested in becoming a contributor to this blog, leave a comment and I'll get back to you.

There should also be something about use I think. Evaluation implies more immediate use, research generates a body of knowledge for use that is frequently less direct or immediate, sometimes use considerations may even be incidental. Evaluation is driven by an intention for use. But where do you put that on an hour glass?
