The People’s Management
School houses the Planning Monitoring and Evaluation Cell,
the Research Cell, the Training Cell, the Social Environment
Cell and the Library and Documentation Centre. As such it
is primarily concerned with activities linked to knowledge
management, organisational learning and internal capacity
building.
The PME Cell has made a shift from survey-based evaluations to developing in-built monitoring and evaluation systems - at both output and effect levels - in collaboration with the different programmes. The evaluation process helps to strengthen programme-level reporting structures and to ensure the ownership of data by the programme staff. In this context, one of the major functions that the PME Cell plays is the preparation of monitoring and evaluation reports, in Hindi, based on data collected in collaboration with the various programmes.
The
Social Environment Cell was formed with the objective
of linking with and extending dialogue to various external
development partners. As such, its work encompasses a
variety of programmes, including the internship programme,
facilitating visitors, organizing internal and external
seminars and workshops, and linking with other NGOs. As
part of this, various linkages have been established with
organisations such as CHIRAG, SAGE, RIM, CAPART and Columbia
University amongst others.
The
training cell facilitates training, capacity enhancement
and learning activities for staff and outsiders both through
Seva Mandir and by linking up with external agencies.
