Monde Moderne
has partnered with the WolfGroup
to pilot a new approach to conducting evaluations of humanitarian
and development programmes: linking traditional approaches
to evaluation with ethnographic film and research.
The WolfGroup
is a Geneva-based consultancy firm that specializes in connecting
expertise from the public and private sectors to provide integrated
and innovative solutions that address the real world challenges
of our clients. Their international resource base of senior
consultants brings together expertise from humanitarian, development,
corporate, academic, defence, and security sectors. Amongst
their clients they include international organisations, multinational
corporations, NGOs, research institutes, think tanks and government
agencies.
| Monde
Moderne will complement traditional evaluations
and reviews with broadcast quality video products that
record behaviour, customs, life experiences and narratives
of programme staff and beneficiaries. Our belief is that
these ethnographic films make for more vibrant and compelling
beneficiary/programme stories and are a critical means
to facilitate the sharing of our evaluation's results
to the client. Monde Moderne will be an integral part
of the WolfGroup's
evaluation teams, producing self-contained research
films, interactive DVD or embeddable video clips which
can be easily circulated internally by the client, serving
as instructive tools, in helping to shape the knowledge
management and learning of the organization, or in highlighting
the nuanced strengths and weaknesses of programmes and
dialogue with stakeholders. |
We are convinced that this unique approach
corresponds with our passion to deliver integrated solutions
that will serve as a catalyst in the development of new strategies,
policies and programmes. |
