Information note Most Significant Change - Ruberto/Pradhan
This document provides information on the Most Significant Change (MSC) methodology that was used as part of the monitoring and evaluation of the SCAMPIS project in India. It discusses:
1) An overview of the MSC technique and why it was relevant for the SCAMPIS project.
2) How the MSC methodology was implemented in India, including training youth to conduct interviews, collecting stories from farmers, and conducting multiple levels of analysis.
3) Specific details on the experience using MSC under the SCAMPIS project in Odisha, India, such as training staff and youth, collecting 25 farmer interviews through video and photos, and analyzing the results.
The most significant change as a part of a project evaluation in india
This document describes an evaluation of an education project in India that was funded by donations to rebuild and improve schools after the 2004 tsunami. The evaluation objectives were to show the project's impact on education access, quality and environment. It also aimed to assess sustainability after funding ended. Due to limitations, the evaluation used a methodology called "Most Significant Change," collecting stories from community volunteers about the most impactful changes, such as empowering child clubs to improve water and sanitation. The most significant change found was increased empowerment of children. However, communication of findings was limited due to the donor not publishing the report. Lessons included using stories to communicate success and ensuring stakeholders are engaged in evaluating and communicating results.
Monitoring and evaluation guidelines for scampis - By Cecilia Ruberto
The document provides guidelines for monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of the SCAMPIS project across three countries - India, Madagascar, and Guatemala. It outlines the structure and purpose of the M&E system, which aims to systematically collect information from the three countries and assess project outputs, outcomes, and impacts. Section C provides practical guidelines for the M&E, including indicators to track outputs like technology adoption, trainings, and promotion activities. Section D addresses frequently asked questions and suggestions.
Most Significant Change technique - Learning Route Rwanda
The Most Significant Change (MSC) technique was used to evaluate the SUN Civil Society Network Learning Route hosted in Rwanda in 2016. Three key findings were identified:
1) Increased togetherness, coordination, and connection between SUN alliance members, helping to strengthen the alliance and ensure impact.
2) Increased visibility and credibility of the SUN alliance led to new partnerships and collaboration.
3) Empowered community champions in Gisagara district are now leading local efforts to reduce malnutrition through activities like vegetable gardens and cooking demonstrations, improving food security.
Most Significant Change Training - SCAMPIS project 2012 - India
This document discusses the Most Significant Change (MSC) technique for monitoring and evaluation. MSC involves collecting stories from participants about changes or impacts in their lives resulting from a program or intervention. It is an alternative to traditional quantitative M&E that focuses on numbers and objectives. The MSC process involves interviewing participants and having them describe changes in their economic, social or political circumstances. These stories are then analyzed to identify the most significant changes and lessons that can be learned to improve strategies. The document provides guidance on how to properly collect, record and analyze MSC stories through participant interviews captured on video.

Santiago girón de león story
La escuela rural de Hierba Buena en Guatemala introdujo un huerto escolar con el apoyo del proyecto SCAMPIS para proporcionar aprendizaje práctico a los estudiantes. Inicialmente, los estudiantes limpiaron y prepararon el suelo y comenzaron a cultivar hortalizas sin riego por goteo. A pesar de las dificultades iniciales, lograron su primera cosecha. Luego se introdujo el riego por goteo, lo que permitió ampliar la producción y reducir el trabajo. Ahora los estudiantes cult

Lova randiambelo story
Four lifelong friends in Madagascar started a micro-enterprise growing tomatoes after graduating from school. They built a low-cost drip irrigation system out of plastic sheeting and tubing to water the plants. A disease devastated their tomato crop that year. They then learned about SCAMPIS, a micro-irrigation demonstration project, and partnered with them. After success with tomatoes, the four friends began manufacturing and selling their drip irrigation kits under the name Innovagri. They now hope to expand distribution of their kits across Madagascar to help address water issues.
Christin ramaroson presentation
The document discusses micro-irrigation for food security in southern Madagascar. It describes a national project that is scaling up micro-irrigation systems (MIS) to help farmers deal with drought and water scarcity. The project trains farmers on MIS use and subsidizes equipment to encourage adoption. MIS has helped over 2,300 households produce vegetables and regain food security. However, challenges remain in expanding access to MIS technologies and ensuring sustainable adoption given farmers' limited financial resources and the unpredictable water supply from drought and climate change.

This document discusses the concept of Most Significant Change (MSC) technique for monitoring and evaluation. MSC involves collecting stories of change from participants and selecting the most significant story. It notes that MSC can help understand changes in people's lives better than traditional monitoring and evaluation methods that rely on numbers. The document provides guidance on how to properly collect, record and analyze stories of change using video by creating a comfortable environment and asking open-ended questions to gather unexpected information and emotions. It highlights some technical challenges to address like camera positioning and interview techniques to obtain high quality videos for MSC analysis.
