following pilot, “ground-truthing” focus group discussions (FGDs) with children
and youth to ensure they reflected children’s experiences. From a rights-based
perspective, participants should ideally be involved in setting the evaluation
agenda.
28 In this case, the team sought to reflect participants’ views in the indicator

refine the indicator set.
The indicator set is illustrated in Fig. 16.2, the method outlined below is also
available in the format of a guidance document for project implementers.
