“I was one of the participants for the M&E course that CERP offered during the month of April. My primary motivation for joining the course was that I was always interested in learning more about the development sector and potentially working over there. I was especially interested in learning how projects are managed and what projects are relevant within the context of Pakistan. This course did not only do a brilliant job at exposing me to the kinds of projects that are going on but also the framework that is followed by the development sector, the skills that you need to develop in order to run a project efficiently and I think one of the theories that I will not only be carrying with me in the corporate sector right now but also eventually when I join the development sector will be the Theory of Change. I think this framework is just so helpful, regardless of what context you apply it in and other than that I was really grateful for the networking opportunities, the fact that I was able to meet like-minded people who were interested in the development sector or were already working there. I learned a lot not just from the teachers but from my peers as well and I hope to continue to stay in touch and continue to use the skills that I learned in my day to day life right now and also stay in touch with the connections I made during this class.”

“This workshop was really good because I think this is the first time researchers are sharing their techniques for making decisions with the private sector. Usually, researchers operate in their own silos and the corporate sector in their own silos, but there are skills that are in both silos, and the two sides can learn from each other. The research sector can learn how large scale companies can use data and the corporate sector can learn how data can be made sense of. And in that sense, this workshop was really good, because it bridged the gap between the two.”

“I think it was a very useful session today and the value and usefulness of data, how it can be employed in industries locally and the insight into how it is being used globally in Fortune 500 companies was very insightful and it has been a great learning experience, I leave this conference with new ideas and thoughts about opportunities that one should focus on.”

The session resulted in promising outcomes and insights, demonstrating CERP’s commitment to innovative initiatives and partnerships. During the session, Dr Ammar Malik, a CERP Fellow affiliated with The Urban Institute and AidData, shared valuable insights on urban planning in developing countries. He discussed the negative impact of sudden urbanisation on public services and highlighted strategies to foster creativity and promote economic growth in urban areas, such as investing in public transportation, implementing mixed land-use regulations, and reducing residential segregation. Adeel Shafqat, the Country Director of Precision Development (PxD), presented PxD’s work on agriculture advisory and its impact. He shared the positive outcomes of farmer advisory through Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) and highlighted the impact of PxD’s work in the agricultural sector. Dr Asjad Naqvi, a senior economist at The Austrian Institute for Economic Research, also shared his research on climate change during the session. He emphasised the need for a holistic, data-driven approach to understand trends and identify actionable solutions, highlighting the emerging research on climate change in Pakistan and the gaps that need to be addressed.
