In the last years, the expectation that development projects focus more on their impacts (rather than just the smooth implementation of the project measures) has risen dramatically. The scenario due to COVID, raise more expectations to monitor “are we doing right thing”? Organisations and project staff struggle with high expectations to identify pathways of changes and prove those changes.

- A better understanding of monitoring challenges when using a "Theory of Change" approach
- The how of developing indicators for quality aspects
