Assessing System Change
Assessing System Change
19 June 2026
Nairobi, Kenya
MCL, in association with the Mazi Group, is offering a one day workshop on Assessing System Change in conjunction with the Donor Committee for Enterprise Development (DCED) Global Seminar that will be held in Nairobi, Kenya on 16 -18 June 2026. The workshop will be held on 19 June 2026 at the Serena Hotel in Nairobi, Kenya (one day after the DCED Global Seminar).
Inspired by "A Pragmatic Approach to Assessing System Change," and drawing on progress since it was written, this workshop will cover practical methodologies for assessing system changes. You will learn actionable steps that you can take to start or improve assessing system changes and utilizing the information for adaptive management.
During the workshop, you will apply user-friendly tools to real cases and learn about the experiences of other institutions and programs. There will also be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and clarify how to apply the tools in your context.
Led by global experts in practical results measurement, Aly Miehlbradt and Phitcha Wanitphon, this dynamic workshop will deepen your understanding of how to design for, and assess system changes to drive impactful systemic initiatives.

Advanced Training Workshop in Results Measurement
Advanced Training Workshop in Results Measurement
Next Course: TBD
This unique training workshop, held every two years, brings together experienced results measurement practitioners to share lessons learned, solve common problems, exchange practical approaches and build a supportive network. It has gained a reputation for empowering practitioners with cutting edge and yet practical tools and techniques in results measurement to improve programme management, impact and accountability.
The main theme of the 2023 workshop was assessing system change. Building on "A Pragmatic Approach to Assessing System Change," we further developed practical ways to assess system changes including changes in key dimensions of systems such as gender equality and inclusion, resilience and climate change adaptation which may be relevant based on a program’s specific context. The event combined training sessions on good practices and successful examples of assessing system change with workshop sessions where the field is still searching for practical approaches, particularly assessing complex dimensions of system change. Content was demand driven, based on interaction with participants in advance.

"The systemic change session provided me with a broader vision on needed approach in my programme that we were not thinking about before."
