Capabilities
Research & Evaluation (IM)
At Danish Institute of Research and Practice (DanishIRP), we specialize in research and evaluation aimed at informing and driving progress within the social and educational sectors. Our capabilities include
Structured Surveys
Leveraging state-of-the-art methodologies, we can design and execute surveys that provide valuable insights into targeted populations and variables. We ensure reliability and validity in data collection through a structured approach, enabling stakeholders to make informed decisions based on accurate and up-to-date information.
In-Depth Case Studies
Our team can compliment structured surveys with detailed case studies thus offering a deep dive into specific concerns, thus providing a rich, contextual understanding of the underlying dynamics and outcomes.
Rigorously Designed Impact Evaluations
We are adept at designing and implementing impact evaluations with precision and scientific rigor. • Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) Frameworks
At the Danish, we understand the pivotal role that effective Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) frameworks play in the success of organizations and projects. Our dedicated MEL teams offer specialized services to develop and enhance these frameworks, ensuring that our partners can track progress, evaluate outcomes, and learn from their initiatives in real-time. Our capabilities in this area include
Development of Indicators
We assist organizations and projects in defining clear, measurable indicators at both the output and outcome levels, ensuring that these indicators are aligned with the goals of our clients and are practical tools for tracking progress and assessing impact.
Systems for Sense-Making Routines
Recognizing the importance of regular analysis and reflection, we help develop systems that facilitate routine sense-making. Research indicates that such routines enable organizations to interpret MEL inputs systematically, and help nurture a culture of continuous learning and adaptation.
Capacity Building and Training
Beyond framework development, we offer training and capacity-building services to capacitate the teams with the skills and knowledge necessary to implement MEL practices effectively. This includes training on data collection, analysis, and the application of findings to inform strategic decisions and improve project outcomes.
