The MandE NEWS mailing list is part of the MandE NEWS website at www.mande.co.uk.

Visitors to the website are invited to use the mailing list to exchange information with each other about monitoring and evaluation issues, especially as they relate to international development aid.

The Editor of MandE NEWS will also use the mailing list to inform list members about significant updates to the MandE NEWS website. The MandE NEWS mailing list is managed by the Editor, Rick Davies .

If you apply to join via this webpage you will be sent a reply email that will acknowledge your request and ask you (a) the nature of your interests, (b) what organisation you work for (or are associated with), (c) your country of residence

Please note: there are also two other more specialised mailing lists managed by MandE NEWS:

• MostSignificant Changes: 580+ members. Co-moderated by Rick Davies and Jessica Dart. The focus is on the use of the MSC approach to monitoring, which is qualitative and participatory and does not require the use of predefined indicators of expected change
• Network Evaluation: 120+ members. New as of July 2004, moderated by Rick Davies. Subject: The evaluation of networks, The use of network analysis in development projects, and Wider references on network analysis
