Independent MEAL · Ukraine
Our approach
MEAL that works in real projects, not just in reports.
We build MEAL systems around how your organisation actually works in conflict-affected Ukraine - shifting contexts, limited access and urgent delivery timelines included.
Guiding principles
-
Evidence-based
Every recommendation is grounded in data. We design tools to answer your real questions, not to fill templates.
-
Adaptive
Humanitarian contexts change fast. Our systems are built to flex - indicators can be revised, tools redeployed, and findings acted on without waiting for a formal review cycle.
-
Participatory
Beneficiaries and implementing staff are sources of insight, not just data points. Accountability to affected communities is built in from the start.
-
Practical
We optimise for use. A monitoring system no one follows is not a monitoring system.
How we work
-
Understand your programme
We start by mapping your theory of change, donor requirements, and what decisions your MEAL system needs to support.
-
Design fit-for-purpose tools
Surveys, trackers, databases and reporting templates built around your context - not lifted from another project.
-
Build & hand over
We set up the full system - Kobo/ODK forms, databases, dashboards and SOPs - and train your team to run it. Where access is limited, we run monitoring surveys by phone with trained enumerators.
-
Analyse and learn
We stand up the analysis and learning loop - clean data, clear findings, learning sessions - then leave you a system your team owns.
