A Community Needs Assessment identifies the strengths and resources within a community to address the needs of children, youth, and families. This evaluation focuses on the capacities of community members, organisations, and agencies, providing a framework for developing supportive environments and effective services.
Our study involves direct interaction with community members and targeted interviews with specific groups to gain a detailed understanding of their needs. We assess the community across seven key thematic areas: Livelihood, Education, Healthcare, Nutrition, Environment, Social Security, and Financial Inclusion. This comprehensive approach ensures a thorough understanding of the community's landscape, enabling the development of tailored solutions that enhance overall well-being.
An Impact Evaluation study systematically examines the short- and long-term changes in a specific project location over a defined time frame. This involves mapping project activities, outputs, outcomes, and both intended and unintended impacts over time.
The study evaluates project interventions through stakeholder interaction and participation, measuring the difference the project has made in the lives of individuals, communities, institutions or organisations. It aims to understand the relevance of the project and identify areas for improvement, gathering valuable insights from grassroots-level interactions. This comprehensive approach ensures a thorough assessment of the project's effectiveness and its overall impact.
