February, 14

In 2011, InsightShare, BRAC Uganda and Population Council Guatemala undertook an 18-month initiative – Video Girls for Change – to train adolescent girls in participatory video and most significant change methodologies, equipping them with the tools and skills to assess and evaluate existing programs and contribute to their development and improvement; document the challenges and obstacles they face within their lives; share their experiences and perspectives; and communicate the solutions they devise and successes they achieve.

Staff and girl participants in the Video Girls for Change initiative will share the outcomes and key learnings from this project and will discuss the challenges and opportunities of using participatory video for monitoring and evaluation with adolescent girls.

With:

• Soledad Muniz, Programme Associate, InsightShare
• Angel Del Valle, Monitoring and Evaluation Coordinator, Population Council Guatemala
• Bandele Adeyemi, Communications Manager, BRAC Uganda
• Janna McDougall, Health & Safety Pillar Lead, Nike Foundation

When: Thursday, 14 February 2013 (3:00 – 4:00 PM GMT)
