Results-based Management, Appreciative Inquiry and Open Space
Technology<br>
Ottawa, Canada<br>
July 12-16, 2004<br><br>
This new workshop introduces participants to Results-based Management,
Appreciative Inquiry and Open Space Technology. Demonstrate the
effectiveness of your programmes with Results-based Management.
Master what we mean by results, develop programme/organizational plans
which are results-based and design performance monitoring systems based
on indicators and participatory methods. You will learn how to
apply gender analysis to your work. You will also expand your
repertoire of tools to also learn about Appreciative Inquiry and
Open Space and how they can be applied to your organization, programme
and/or project. These approaches are increasingly being used around
the world to tap into new ways to do our work in ways that are more
results-oriented, more appreciative and less problem-focused and more
self-organized vs top down.<br><br>

Participatory Development Concepts, Tools and Application in PLA/PRA
Methods<br>
Ottawa, Canada<br>
July 19-24, 2004<br><br>
The PD workshop focuses on core participatory concepts, tools and their
application. This is an intensive six-day workshop set in the community
to maximize learning, group interaction and networking. Topics
include The Origins of Participatory Development, Learning and
Application of PRA/PLA tools, the Application of Participation to Project
Design, Monitoring and Evaluation, Developing Effective Facilitation
Skills, Building Action Plans and Team-Building. Two-day community
assignments proposed by community-based organizations in the Ottawa
region will allow participants to apply tools learned in the workshop to
real-life situations. This is also a great opportunity to network

over the world.<br><br>

Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation<br>
Ottawa, Canada<br>
July 26-31, 2004<br><br>
Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation (PM & E) involves a different
approach to project monitoring and evaluation by involving local people,
project stakeholders, and development agencies deciding together about
how to measure results and what actions should follow once this
information has been collected and analyzed. This intensive six day
experiential workshop is practically focused with daily excursions into
the community and a three-day community assignment. Topics covered
at the workshop include Origins of PM & E, Skills and Attributes of a
PM & E facilitator, Learning PM & E Tools, Designing a Monitoring
and Evaluation Framework and Actions Plan and much more. <br><br>
All workshops organized by Mosaic are sensitive to issues of gender,
ethnicity, race, class and sexuality and how these can influence outcomes
and how we see the world if they are absent from our assumptions,
direct participation, our analysis and conclusions. <br><br>

to suit the specific needs of your organization.<br><br>
