Cota initiates and facilitates organizational learning processes for social change actors.

Our fields of expertise

Planning, monitoring and assessment

Between accountability and learning, the planning, monitoring and evaluation of projects and programmes contribute to their continuous improvement. These learning practices enable us to draw concrete lessons from experience, and to understand the processes of change driven and experienced by the organisations we support.

Capitalization

We support organisational and collective processes for capitalising on knowledge, practices and experience. We use specific methods and tools to optimise the learning potential of these processes.

Training and facilitation

We offer methodological training modules designed to enhance the quality and impact of the work of those involved in social change. We also facilitate seminars, colloquia and workshops as part of a collaborative learning approach.

Action research and experimentation

We develop action research on the major issues of interest to those involved in social change. This work is based on methodological experimentation and exchanges between peers, giving rise to publications and tools.

Our methodological expertise covers a wide range of fields and works with organisations involved in a variety of social issues. We are particularly involved in issues relating to citizenship, migration, gender and ecology.

Our thematics

We are also working on issues such as health, education, vocational training, employment, peace and security, social cohesion, governance and the digital transition.

Evaluation

Geographical evaluation of the initiative’s interventionsin Madagascar

objectif stratégique dont la principale visée est de nourrir la réflexion
des équipes de L’Initiative sur ses actions futures à Madagascar, sur son positionnement entre
approche à la demande, spécification des interventions et rôle catalyseur des interventions qu’elle
peut déployer.
Cet objectif se construit autour de deux dimensions intrinsèquement liées :

  • Une dimension rétrospective : il s’agit de faire un bilan des actions de L’Initiative à
    Madagascar, de porter un regard sur les changements apportés par ces actions depuis sa
    création et sur les effets auxquels elles ont contribué dans un contexte multi partenarial ;
  • Une dimension prospective : il s’agit ici d’identifier les enjeux, besoins et leviers d’évolution
    stratégiques (dont les détails seront donnés dans les objectifs et travaux attendus) dans le
    contexte actuel voir pour le prochain cycle de financement et la manière de les mettre en
    œuvre.

Evaluation

Study of the effects on teachers of Global and Solidarity Citizenship Education (ECMS) approaches accompanied by CSOs and Beglobal in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation

The aim is to carry out a study on the effects of Global Citizenship and Solidarity Education (ECMS) approaches supported by CSOs and BeGlobal on teachers in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation.
The underlying objective is to promote the CHMS approaches that CSOs carry out with teachers and to show the added value of these interventions for the quality of teaching through the strengthening of teachers’ capacities in the exercise of their function. This study will feed into the advocacy and communication work carried out by ACODEV, the CNCD-11.11.11. and BeGlobal to policymakers with concrete and up-to-date data.
It will be a question of identifying all the skills (disciplinary, pedagogical and behavioral) that are reinforced by the different approaches of CSOs.

Evaluation

Evaluation of the BeGlobal – ACODEV Program

The BeGlobal programme aims to transform young people aged 3 to 30 into “citizens of the world”, aware of the challenges of sustainable development, committed to a fairer and more sustainable world. Its objective is to anchor global citizenship education (GCED) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Belgian education in the long term.

The program seeks to:
Foster an enabling environment for the integration of GCED and the SDGs into education.
Strengthen the capacities of education stakeholders to offer quality content on GCED and the SDGs.
Raise awareness and train young people while providing them with opportunities for engagement.

The evaluation aims to measure progress and strengthen learning to inform the next program.
