Pilot Project Highlights

  • Outcome Mapping training workshop in Vietnam in February 2008-see Photos
  • WorldFish Pilot presents paper - "Monitoring for change, assessing for impact: the WorldFish Center experience" by Natasja Sheriff and Tonya Schuetz at 'Re-thinking Impact' Conference
  • Implementation of Outcome Mapping with Project partners and Communities in Vietnam--see Photos


Project Overview

“It is necessary to use approaches which adopt a more participatory approach to impact monitoring to ensure that we are building a complete and accurate picture of project impacts and which allow project beneficiaries to more openly share their experience of project impact. Through more emphasis on sharing knowledge, we can all learn a lot.” – Natasja Sheriff, Project Leader

The WorldFish Center’s project ‘Community-based fish culture in seasonal floodplains and irrigation systems’ (CPWF35) sponsored by the Challenge Program on Water and Food involves national research partners in five Asian countries.  It aims to develop appropriate technologies through an adaptive learning approach, encouraging both national partners and direct beneficiaries at the community-level to evaluate fish culture activities each year and modify the following year’s approach based on the results.  As such, more participatory approaches to impact monitoring would provide a complete and accurate picture of the local conditions as well as project impacts, with project beneficiaries sharing knowledge and experiences more openly.

Objectives
This project will:

  • Apply KS tools to assess the impact of CPWF35 in Vietnam.
  • Evaluate the value and applicability of these tools in the project context.
  • Build capacity amongst national partners, and CPWF35 project staff at IFPRI and WorldFish, in the application of KS tools for Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E).
