Why is Monitoring and Evaluation vital for change driven organisations and what does it mean to really listen to the people we work with on the ground? What can we learn from involving rural communities when we innovate to drive change, and what are some preconceptions development organisations often bring with them into the field? In the second episode of Permission to Fail we hear from Kat Harrison, Director at 60 Decibels and Tokozile Ngwenya, Monitoring and Evaluation specialist working with SolarAid in Zambia. ABOUT THIS PODCAST Is the charity sector a place for true disruption and can embracing failure help tackle some of the world’s most pressing issues? In this podcast, ‘Permission to fail’, UK based international development charity SolarAid, shines a light on their experience of trial, error, philanthropy and entrepreneurship when delivering solar energy to rural last-mile communities in sub-Saharan Africa. With nearly 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa lacking electricity and with less than a decade to go until 2030 when the world is to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals, SolarAid advocates for the importance of not only embracing, but also championing failure in a true attempt to learn and succeed together.
