Description

Meta-analysis – a multi-country, multi-level, multi-scale and interdisciplinary activity

Whatworkswhere, why, for whom?

What– the outcomes and impacts of N2Africa and partners

Works– achieves the vision of success at plot, household, community, province and country level

The meta-analysis theme depends on data collection in M&E of N2Africa’s D&D activities, the agronomy and rhizobiology research activities, as well as detailed studies on specific topics. The meta analysis theme must have a strong iteration with M&E and other relevant activities. Consistency of measurements and unit of measurement across all countries and partners are a requirement. This implies that uniform data capture tools must be developed and these tools should be accompanied by guidelines and/or training on how to use them. Data collection tools need to be embedded in the national action plans.
