Monitoring is the continuous collection of data and information on specified indicators to assess the implementation of a development intervention in relation to activity schedules and expenditure of allocated funds, and progress and achievements in relation to its intended outcome.
Evaluation is the periodic assessment of the design implementation, outcome, and impact of a development intervention. It should assess the relevance and achievement of the intended outcome, and implementation performance in terms of effectiveness and efficiency, and the nature, distribution, and sustainability of impact.

Data Harvesting, Curation and Fusion Model to Support Public Service Recommen...Citadelh2020
CITADEL is a H2020 European project that is creating an ecosystem of best practices, tools, and recommendations to transform Public Administrations (PAs) via an inclusive approach in order to provide stakeholders with more efficient, inclusive and citizen-centric services. The CITADEL ecosystem will allow PAs to use what they already know plus new data to implement what really matters to citizens in order to shape and co-create more efficient and inclusive public services. CITADEL innovates by using ICTs to find out why citizens stop using public services, and use this information to re-adjust provision to bring them back in. Also, it identifies why citizens are not using a given public service (due to affordability, accessibility, lack of knowledge, embarrassment, lack of interest, etc.) and, where appropriate, use this information to make public services more attractive, so they start using the services.
The DataTank, a tool designed and developed by IMEC’s IDLab, will be extended to provide the Data Harvesting/Curation/Fusion (DHCF) component of the platform. The DataTank provides an open source, open data platform which not only allows publishing datasets according to standardised guidelines and taxonomies (DCAT-AP), but also transforms the data into a variety of reusable formats. The extension will include an intelligent way of harvesting and fusion of different data sources using semantics and Linked Data mapping technologies developed by IDLab. In the context of CITADEL the new HCF component will enable the visualization and analysis of trends for the usage of public services in European cities, playing a key role in generating personalized recommendations to the citizens as well as to PAs in terms of suggesting improvements to the current suite of public services.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Data management tools for monitoring, evaluation and learning—Options and ideas
1. Data management tools for monitoring, evaluation
and learning – options and ideas
Jane Poole
Livestock and Fish Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning
planning meeting, Nairobi, 27-28 November 2013
2. Tools for: Overall management of M&E
ongoing in bilateral projects and CRP
• Research Management System (RMS) – as a source of data?
Adaptation to capture CRP level monitoring?
Tools for: Performance Indicator Matrix
• Access Database - stop-gap solution for 2013 reporting.
Ideally would be web-based SQL database that can allow
centres to enter their PROGRAM monitoring data directly
• FormHub (open-source web tool for collecting ODK data
using Forms) – this is where we should move to (currently
doing this with the goat / cassava M&E project data)
• Link to ILRI DSpace (Mahider) – for submission of outputs /
deliverables relating to the indicators
8. Tools for: Development (& Research) Indicator
Bank
• FormHub (open-source web tool for collecting ODK data using
Forms) – this is where we should move to (currently doing this
with the goat / cassava M&E project data).
• Data Portal (open-source system, CKAN) – initially designed for
storing and sharing project data including bilateral for CRP 3.7.
Can be developed further to provide cross-project / activity
learning on IDO Indicators and Medium-term Indicators.
Tools for: Data Collection
• ODK & CsPro – gradually building templates for standard
surveys (and specific indicators) making the design of future
ones easier. Currently in development is ODK collection of
Ethiopia small-ruminant VC HH survey. ODK also being used for
DGEA2 in Tanzania – not sure if common tables.
13. Process…
• Finalisation of the MEL Framework to confirm the
needs for Knowledge Management (page 25
current version)
• Using some of the tools suggested we need to look
at the system as a whole – identify any missing
tools and how all tools are integrated.
14. CGIAR Research Program on Livestock and Fish
livestockfish.cgiar.org
CGIAR is a global partnership that unites organizations engaged in research for a food secure future. The CGIAR
Research Program on Livestock and Fish aims to increase the productivity of small-scale livestock and fish systems
in sustainable ways, making meat, milk and fish more available and affordable across the developing world.
