Monitoring Systems in Africa Book Launch
Join us for a virtual launch of the ‘Monitoring Systems in Africa’ book, edited by Caitlin Blaser Mapitsa and Catherine Churchill.
This volume of the book presents a holistic approach to monitoring systems. This includes a range of purposes that monitoring practices serve, followed by a selection of the components of a monitoring system, and then presents case studies of monitoring systems. The aim of the book is to explore monitoring as a practice on its own, related but not constricted to its framing in performance management or evaluation.
