The knowledge I have gained from the ICT Skills Building Program has made my work much faster as I am saving more of the time I used to take to format the reports. I have been able to apply the techniques I learnt with Excel especially the tables and charts to assist me to present data in meaningful forms which are more easily understood.

Joint Field Processes
What is it?
|
Why is it useful?
|
|
Interagency activities such as joint evaluations and after action reviews at field office level have led to a greater understanding of accountability and impact measurement.
|
Working collaboratively increases peer accountability and transparency, and it helps agencies to learn more from one another, take a collective stance, and coordinate future responses.
|
Joint evaluations or after action reviews expose agencies' shortcoming to peer angecies and to even a broader audience. These evaluations provide valuable information on the relevance and impact of programs and demonstrate a commitment to transparency and accountability. They also provide a forum for sharing knowledge, resources and tools among peer agencies, and they help to solidify long term cooperative relationships between agencies. Joint evaluations have been conducted in Niger, Indonesia and Guatemala, among others.
