Coaching for Peace is a mentorship program that will connect new and emerging practitioners and evaluators with experienced practioners and evaluators who will provide guidance on how to navigate the daily challenges of implementing DME best practices in dynamic and complex environments. Through this program you could explore program design, learn how to monitor for change, discuss how to set up evaluation processes, and many other key topics in DM&E. The lessons shared through Coaching for Peace will help you contribute to growing a learning culture in the field and in your own work.
