Monitor

OBJECTIVES

In this lesson, the Team learns quantitative and qualitative research techniques, from data research and analysis to field exploration. The Team organizes an on-site monitoring visit, in order to verify  the progress of the chosen project, even through interviews with the project’s key people (e.g. implementing bodies) and, meetings with institutions. After, the Team processes the collected data and information and write a monitoring report using Monithon, the independent civic monitoring platform (https://www.monithon.eu/it/).
