About Evidence Frontiers
Evidence Frontiers is an African-based Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) consulting firm headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, established in 2002. We deliver expert MEL and strategy services that empower organizations to enhance their performance and drive sustainable social, economic, and environmental change. Our work is grounded in a commitment to equity, diversity, and technical excellence, ensuring that we meet the highest professional and ethical standards. We specialize in delivering high-quality evidence and insights, enabling our partners to make informed decisions based on a deep understanding of what works, how it works, and for whom.
Our experience includes carefully tailoring a wide range of analytical and quantitative tools to enable decision-makers to design better policies, rigorously test those ideas, and take informed action at scale to improve lives. Depending on the organization and programmed needs, we have helped diagnose social sector challenges, design, and test potential solutions, and operationalize those solutions found to be most impactful. Our formative and summative evaluations cover a variety of evaluation purposes and designs – from a traditional snapshot and longitudinal designs to more innovative developmental and participatory approaches.
Through these, we examine the efficiency, relevance, and effectiveness of activities and processes. We assess the sustainability and institutional impacts of interventions and partnerships. We emphasize local participation, organizational skill development, and the usefulness of the evaluation to inform decision-making. Using quantitative and qualitative methods, we measure the impact of development programs to determine their true effects. We also conduct large-scale surveys to assess development indicators or to inform program and evaluation design.
