01 — Who we are
KiriMELCOP is a national peer-learning platform for people interested in Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning. It creates space for practitioners to connect, learn from one another and strengthen how evidence supports decisions.
We value local knowledge, practical solutions and respectful collaboration. Our community welcomes experience from every level—from those beginning their MEL journey to established specialists.
Participation in KiriMELCOP is free for everyone who is interested. KiriMELCOP is an independent, community-led initiative being developed as a non-government organisation. It is not part of, controlled by, or affiliated with any government organisation.
