Hello am Violet Ndeti from Kenya. I work as a data processor at Dalberg Research.

Hi, I'm Franziska and I'm joining from the UK.
I'm at university, studying for a PhD in agriculture and food security.
I've previously managed projects, in academia and for the general public, for example for refugees, and I'd like to improve my skills in evaluating and improving them.
I'm happy to discuss course questions with other here, but I'm not sure my schedule would fit particularly well with an assigned team.
I've previously completed an online course with +Acumen on social impact analysis (check it out, it's free online and I really enjoyed that), learning about their approach to social impact evaluation. I'm hoping to learn about additional tools and widen my approach to monitoring and evaluation in this course. In particular, I'm volunteering in science policy right now and I hope this will benefit my work.
