A Quote on M&E

Tolstoy wrote about families, and Hadley Wickham adapted that idea for data. Recognizing the same truth in M&E systems, I crafted this quote to reflect their patterns and dynamics.

Back in 2009, the Canadian Research Institute for the Advancement of Women (CRIAW-ICREF) developed the Intersectionality Wheel for their publication, Everyone Belongs: A Toolkit for Applying Intersectionality.
