Learning and Adaptive Management: Turning Evidence into Better Decisions

Development programmes generate increasing amounts of monitoring, evaluation and feedback evidence, but evidence does not automatically lead to learning or better decisions. This article examines the Learning Gap and presents the AAYAN Adaptive Learning Cycle as a practical approach to connecting evidence, reflection, decision-making, adaptation and institutional learning.
