• Contribute to the development and maintenance of a project monitoring dashboard to capture project milestones, key performance indicators, and financial data.
• Work closely with the DIPC Project Manager to keep project tools updated, provide input on best practices, and develop process improvement strategies.
• Monitoring, evaluation, and learning
