Empowering Institutions to Lead with Evidence

Institutionalising M&E in Pakistan

Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) in Pakistan has gained increased attention in recent years. While political transitions and shifting priorities have slowed the pace of uptake, important steps have been taken at both the national and provincial levels to strengthen systems and build capacity, creating opportunities for more systematic use of evidence in policymaking.

CLEAR PCA has been consistently engaged in Pakistan over the past several years, navigating political shifts by maintaining long-term partnerships and working with champions across government and civil service institutions. Our approach has been to provide technical support, build capacity, and create repeated touchpoints that gradually strengthen the foundations for institutionalizing M&E.

  • Strategic advisory to federal and provincial planning departments
  • Framework design for results-based monitoring in public programs
  • Support to government think tanks and research bodies
  • Developing Theory of Change and Measurement frameworks

Evidence that informs, influences, and inspires action

Knowledge Dissemination

We believe knowledge must be shared to create impact. Through accessible, action-oriented knowledge products, we bridge the gap between evaluation practice and policy influence. Our dissemination efforts include:

Reports, webinars, case studies and other knowledge products, based on our advisory and research work.

Practical toolkits and guides to support real-time use of M&E tools in governments and development partners.

Events like gLOCAL, thematic policy workshops, and regional discussions that foster learning across borders and sectors.

A growing online content library to ensure continuous learning and open access to evaluation insights.
