I possess more than 12 years of proven expertise in monitoring, evaluation, and research. I have extensive experience in research, analysis, design and implementation of ME systems in development projects. There's a specialized focus on developing and executing research analysis across diverse projects, notably in Sustainable Development Goals, disaster risk reduction, child-centric SDG plans, and initiatives targeting migrant workers. Proficiency encompasses the use of SPSS, STATA, and NVIVO for meticulous data analysis, complemented by a Master's in Econometrics and Statistics. Experience entails leading evaluations for esteemed international entities such as German Red Cross and UNICEF, steering impactful strategies, and pioneering databases aligning SDGs with federal expenditure.
As a member of joint evaluation team (Pakistan, US- New York, Nepal, and Iran) was responsible to conduct evaluation of IFRC ‘Afghan Population Movement Emergency Appeal’ interventions in KP and Baluchistan. The Evaluation is specifically designed to:
• Assess and provide lessons that will help inform the response capacity and readiness of National Societies and host communities, particularly in countries receiving large numbers of refugees and other people on the move seeking protection.
• Inform IFRC strategic decisions and planning to support a sustainable and effective response to the needs of refugees and other people on the move from Afghanistan to the regions neighbouring Afghanistan, specifically Tajikistan, Iran and Pakistan.
The alignment of budgetary processes and financial flows with the SDGs framework is one major area for the localization of SDGs. The budgetary allocations include the development and the current budget of the Federal government. The purpose of this exercise is to map the Federal Chart of Accounts/Call Center/DDO Codes covering all investments against relevant SDGs Target/Indicator and to test system capability to track individual expenditure heads via dis-aggregated budget codes. The outcome of the exercise will allow for the generation of information for policy and decision-making at critical stages of resource distribution and during implementation throughout the fiscal cycle.
