Here’s a fun fact: Over 60% of project teams say that evaluation findings directly change how they design their next program.

That’s the beauty of Monitoring & Evaluation: it’s not just about proving success, but about improving how we achieve it. Whether you are a health researcher, a market analyst, or an M&E officer, the ability to transform raw numbers into actionable stories is what makes a real impact.

At the heart of this transformation is SPSS, one of the most powerful suites for data analysis and modeling. It’s the industry standard for professionals who need to process large amounts of quantitative data quickly and accurately.

If you're looking to retool your skills and remain competitive, our 2026 Professional Training Programme is designed for you.

From mastering complex data manipulation in Excel to performing advanced statistical tests in SPSS, we bridge the gap between "having data" and "understanding data."

Recently, our team supported and engaged in a productive assignment as we continue strengthening our collaboration with Right To Play under the SHARE Project, funded by Global Affairs Canada.

Our engagement centered on refining and operationalizing a structured monthly monitoring framework to support simple, mobile-based data collection and mentoring of Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs) over a four-month cycle.

The framework enables field teams to systematically track financial performance, group functionality, and overall progress toward project outcomes.

Beyond tracking performance, the approach promotes accountability and continuous improvement by generating clear, actionable follow-up points for mentoring in subsequent months.

This strengthens timely decision-making, enhances group quality, and contributes to sustained economic resilience among adolescent-focused savings groups.

We appreciate the continued partnership and the commitment of all stakeholders working to drive sustainable, evidence-driven impact.

✨ Mid-Week Update | Keeping the Momentum Strong

It’s been an energising week at Maarifa Consult as our team continues to support partners across multiple engagements.

From ongoing evaluations to field coordination, learning sessions, and planning meetings the past few days have been full, productive, and deeply meaningful.

Each engagement reminds us of why we do this work:
✔️ Strengthening systems
✔️ Generating evidence
✔️ Helping organisations make informed, impactful decisions

We’re grateful for the trust placed in us and excited about the insights emerging from this week’s activities. More updates coming as we wrap up each assignment.

Here’s to a productive Wednesday and to development work that moves from intention to impact.
