eBASE Learning Series

ABOUT THE SERIES

eBASE Africa generates findings from evaluations, pilots, and applied research across education, health, and social systems. The eBASE Learning Series was created to bring that work into shared spaces, where results can be presented clearly, implementation realities discussed honestly, and implications explored together with the people who need to act on them.

Each session focuses on one specific piece of eBASE Africa's work. The emphasis is on what the evidence shows, what was learned along the way, and what it means for policy and practice.

WHAT EACH SESSION COVERS

Each session covers one specific piece of eBASE Africa's work. The emphasis is on results, lessons, and implications, not exhaustive methodological detail.

Sessions may draw on:

• Impact and Implementation Evaluations Findings from field-based evaluations examining what interventions achieved and how they were delivered.
• Pilot Programmes and Early-Stage Testing Learning from programmes at the testing phase, including what adaptations were made and what they revealed.
• Evidence Synthesis Products Outputs such as Evidence Gap Maps that consolidate what is known and where critical knowledge gaps remain.
• Tools and Methods Approaches developed or used by eBASE Africa that may be relevant to others working in similar contexts.
• Cross-Cutting Learning Lessons on delivery, fidelity, adaptation, and scale-up that cut across thematic areas and geographies.

UPCOMING SESSION

Session 01: MHM Trial in Cameroon

Session title: Improving Menstrual Hygiene Management in Schools: Lessons from a Randomized Controlled Trial (efficacy study) in Cameroon

Between January and June 2024, eBASE Africa conducted a cluster randomised control trial evaluating a school-based Menstrual Hygiene Management intervention across four regions of Cameroon. This session shares what the trial found and what it taught, including the impact on girls' school attendance, implementation lessons across safe spaces, dignity kits, teacher training, and MHM clubs, and what the results mean for responsible scale-up.
