Title
(Draft) Managing to Adapt - Analysing Adaptive Management for Planning, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (draft)
Abstract
Adaptive management is at the heart of ‘doing development differently’ (Wild et al., 2016).
Whether it is here to stay depends on how much it is mainstreamed into existing development
programming by donors and implementers alike, especially in planning, monitoring, evaluation,
and learning (PMEL) cycles. In this report, we find that mainstreaming adaptive management in
PMEL involves three strategies:
1. planning for flexibility;
2. developing locally owned monitoring and evaluation (M&E); and
3. creating an enabling environment for learning.
Adopting these strategies contributes to virtuous cycles of PMEL
