Laureus Sports for Good M&E workshop

Laureus Sports for Good M&E workshop

Erica and Adrienne from The Little Optimist, attended the Monitoring and Evaluation workshop at Laureus Sports for Good in Stellenbosch on the 30 and 31 of July.

This was the last of a series of workshops that formed part of The Incubation Hub. This workshop was practical and provided us with insight into our theory of change and how to communicate it effectively. The Monitoring and Evaluation process included Accountability and Learning.

We have been able to implement strategies to triangulate our data thus securing validity to support our impact reports.

Our Theory of Change: Optimism is a powerful “health tonic” and is, in the communities the Trust targets, in short supply. Through intimate engagement with individuals and small groups of our targeted people, and through engaging with certain physical environments, we will build optimism, incrementally inspiring self-belief, self-confidence, a sense of self-worth and improved mental health resilience.

We will also open their imagination to what they themselves can be and do.
