MEL System Design for Rehabilitation Centers for Trafficked Children

ECPAT International runs a well-regarded rehabilitation programme for sexually exploited children in India and Bangladesh. XSIGHTS was asked to establish an M&E system for their programme. XSIGHTS interviewed the children who benefited from the programme and proposed a child- centric M&E framework, using projective and participatory techniques. The performance indicators selected included academic achievement, quality of social interactions, and psychological well-being of the children in the rehabilitation center.

Assistance in Preparing Marketing Plans for Youth Communities

XSIGHTS was commissioned by GOPA to support Turkish youth communities in developing a marketing plan for advertisement of their local produce. With assistance from XSIGHTS, young members of these communities conducted focus group discussions and surveys among the farmers, analyzed the data, conducted a SWOT analysis and prepared a marketing plan for funding.
