About the Event
Afghan Evaluation Society (AfES) has been offering a series of training sessions for Young and Emerging Evaluators (YEEs) since May 2016, and so far, it has trained over 300 YEEs. Our YEEs Training series intends to build the capacity of individual Afghan evaluators based in Afghanistan, and outside of Afghanistan, and who are new to the field of Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL). AfES targets Afghan MEL personnel from NGOs, CSOs, UN entities, and other funder/donor, humanitarian agencies to attend these trainings.
In collaboration with EvalYouth Afghanistan, we are excited to announce another Virtual Training Program on Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning designed explicitly for Young and Emerging Evaluators (YEEs). This training continues our tradition, aligning with the theme of gLocal Evaluation Week 2025. The theme is more relevant to Afghanistan than ever, as the country urgently needs peace, inclusion, and environmental sustainability, areas that have been largely neglected since the transition in 2021.
Don’t miss this chance to enhance your skills and contribute to the evaluation community in Afghanistan! We look forward to your participation.
