The market systems development community has long grappled with how to best capture evidence of systemic change. This webinar sheds light on how to better understand some of the indications of systemic change.

Our experts share findings from a multi-year trial conducted by the USAID-funded Leveraging Economic Opportunities (LEO) activity that applied various ‘complexity-aware’ monitoring tools in Bangladesh, Sierra Leone, Georgia and Mozambique in order to assess their utility for capturing systemic change. We also explore USAID’s latest thinking about systems in the program cycle, including discussions of the new ADS201 and 5Rs Framework.
