Assessing the Policy Impact of the "Como Vamos" Program in Colombia

This workshop aimed at assessing the policy impact of Fundación Corona’s Cómo Vamos program. Fundación Corona is a Colombian non-profit organization based in Bogota that focuses in education programs. The Cómo Vamos program is part of their citizen education initiatives. The main objective of the Cómo Vamos program is to produce quality information about the quality of life of cities and about citizen perception in order to empower local governments and citizens. The SIPA Team worked to design a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system to assess the effectiveness of this program. The SIPA Team reviewed the Cómo Vamos mission, activities, and current framework in order to articulate a theory of change, design a logical framework that evaluates the progress of the program, and develop recommendations that clarified the Cómo Vamos program mission.
