Between accountability and learning, the planning, evaluation, monitoring and capitalization of projects and programs contribute to their continuous improvement. All these learning practices allow us to draw concrete lessons from experience and to understand the processes of change driven and experienced by the organizations we accompany.
Cota initiates and facilitates organizational learning processes for social change actors.
Our 3 areas of expertise
Evaluation & Monitoring
Training
In order to strengthen the quality and impact of change agents’ interventions, we offer training modules in project cycle management (PCM), results-based management (RBM), change-oriented approaches (COA), evaluation process management and monitoring and evaluation management. We also offer other methodological trainings on demand.
We develop action-research approaches on major issues of interest to social change actors. These approaches are based on methodological experiments and exchanges between peers, giving rise to publications (articles, reports, studies) and tools (analytical grids, frameworks, games). The content of our consulting missions is continuously fed into this knowledge production.

Our 2 thematic fields
Citizenship dynamics
The strengthening of active and responsible citizenship is a central issue in the development of our societies. Alongside institutions and decision-makers, citizens play a key role in the processes of change. A large part of our missions and projects are based on the analysis, reinforcement or enhancement of citizenship dynamics. This translates into support for actors in the field of education for global citizenship and solidarity (ECMS).
Territorial governance and public policies
The territorial approach is an essential lever in the elaboration and implementation of viable and sustainable development projects. Faced with the complexity of local and global territorial issues, public policies represent an essential tool for initiating and supporting sustainable development dynamics. Most of our missions and projects are situated in a perspective of analysis, reinforcement or valorization of territorial governance and related public policies.
OUR RECENT MISSIONS AND PROJECTS
“Final review of the intervention ‘Strengthening the Referral General Hospital St Joseph in Kinshasa for COVID-19 response in the context of a structural health system strengthening approach.’”
Designed in the context of the COVID-19 epidemic, the project consisted of two axes: firstly, a focus on the response to COVID-19, with a particular emphasis on case management; secondly, a focus on strengthening the institutional, technical, and organizational capacities of the hospital. One of the innovations planned in this latter framework was the establishment of a subsidized flat-rate pricing system based on the principles developed in various other Enabel projects. As part of the new bilateral portfolio for 2023-2027, the city of Kinshasa has been included as a beneficiary for the “health and social protection” axis. This evaluation is therefore important to guide stakeholders on the interest of including support for St Joseph Hospital in the future portfolio to be managed by Enabel.
The review of the support program for St Joseph Hospital aims to: • Support management. Based on in-depth, evidence-based analyses, useful and applicable recommendations will be produced. • Contribute to learning by analyzing the project development process. • Ensure accountability to the donor, partner, and internal actors by providing an external assessment of progress made and results achieved.”
