**<font 24px/Trebuchet MS,Helvetica,sans-serif;;#e67e22;;inherit>The CARE International MEL Community of Practice</font>  **

The CI MEL Community of Practice is created as a space where MEL specialists and MEL enthusiasts from all CARE offices can:

  - Regularly be informed on progress around the global MEL agenda
  - Engage in sessions and activities focused on: sharing practices/tools/innovations, collectively addressing MEL challenges, training, technical assistance, etc. All with the ultimate goal of strengthening MEL capacities across CARE.

It is a semi-formal platform, facilitated by the [[:ci_mel_group|CI MEL group]], and its success is highly dependent on the extent to which its members are actively engaged, and able to share their experience and perspectives.


==== How to join the MEAL Community of Practice? ====

The engagement in the Community of Practice is open to colleagues in all CARE teams around the world (Project, Country, Region, Member or Affiliate, etc.). 

The agenda of the Community of Practice will be highly linked with the priorities that shape the CI MEL agenda. However, members are free to adjust its content or evolve to a wider range of working groups (e.g. in other languages) or other forms of interaction.

==== Members of the MEAL Community - MEAL Capacity Mapping ====

Members of the Community of Practice are the core of CARE’s global capacity for monitoring programmatic actions, measuring impact and capturing and sharing leaning from our programming. Therefore, it is of great value to know how our MEL expertise is consolidated around the world, and the capacity building needs in different aspects of MEL.
