4. Secretariat Knowledge Management Activities Strengthening M&E Approaches for Youth Development Projects in Conflictaffected Countries in Europe and Central Asia (ECA) The Social Development unit in the Eastern Europe and Central Asia region (ECSSD SCL) and the State and Peace building Fund (SPF) will collaborate to strengthen the monitoring and evaluation capacity and methodologies of projects in six countries in the region that focus on youth development, inclusion, and employment. Three of these projects are funded by the SPF and targeted at addressing the impact of conflict on youth and mitigating the risk of future violence and armed conflict. These projects offer a rich opportunity to gather strong data on the effectiveness of different types of programmatic interventions for youth outcomes in countries affected by conflict and to identify lessons learned which can be used to strengthen the design of future SPF and other Bank funded projects.
