The 3rd SEAMEO Strategic Workshop on Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning

Leaders and experts from 26 SEAMEO Centres/Network joined the 3rd SEAMEO Strategic Workshop on Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) on July 16, 2024 in Bangkok, Thailand. Hosted by the SEAMEO Secretariat and supported by the ASEAN-UK Supporting the Advancement of Girls’ Education Programme, the series of workshops focus on strengthening MEL practices to enhance the effectiveness and impact of SEAMEO initiatives across Southeast Asia.

The 3rd SEAMEO Strategic Workshop on MEL aimed to finalize the SEAMEO Results Framework, refine data collection strategies, and review the implementation of a MEL pilot program initiated in seven centres. Through expert-led sessions and interactive group work, participants collaboratively developed a comprehensive MEL framework to ensure alignment with SEAMEO’s strategic goals.
The MEL framework empowers SEAMEO Centres to assess their impact and adapt to Southeast Asia’s dynamic educational landscape. SEAMEO RETRAC actively contributed initiatives and shared experiences in building the framework, underscoring its commitment to advancing regional education and promoting excellence through collaboration and innovation.
