  • Comrades of Children Overseas Monitoring and Evaluation Report 2013/14
    Comrades of Children Overseas Monitoring and Evaluation Report 2013/14 COCO is an international children’s charity that works with communities in remote regions of the developing world to alleviate the poverty preventing children’s education. We believe that investing in communities and meeting their needs will ensure that children can access the education they deserve and by giving a mother a loan to run her own business, drilling a well or building a classroom we can ensure that both the children and the community as a whole can benefit. Since COCO was founded in 2000, by Steve Cram MBE and Army Corp Major Jim Paton, over £2.8 million has been raised to fund small, sustainable, community led initiatives that enable children living in poverty stricken regions of the developing world to access education and the opportunities it provides. This year COCO worked with 11 project partners in East Africa. This report aims to show how the work we are doing is benefitting these communities around the world to build long lasting solutions to poverty. It focuses on Monitoring and Evaluation, something which we consider to be important at COCO, to ensure that the work we are doing is benefitting who it is supposed to be, and so that we can constantly learn and grow in the future. It also looks at how the projects relate to our new Schools for Life programme, which you can read more about on the next page! For more detailed information on our projects you can look at our website, or contact and us.
