it relates to the visions of the grantee institutions. A monitoring framework was developed over the course of the year and piloted at the end-of-year site visits. The framework was further used by the assessor to cross check against the evaluation framework.

The coordinator continues to review the current site visit schedule and assessment schedule to fit more strategically with grantee’s own review processes so that within the programme we indirectly encourage and start building internal evaluative practice at each of the grantee institutions.

The 2007 – 2008 reporting year has seen major advances both in how the Kresge Foundation Special Initiative is being implemented, and in terms of how grantee institutions are grappling with – and addressing – the challenges they face in developing Advancement practices applicable to our various local contexts.
