Output 2. The TA will adapt the Graduation Approach's monitoring system to the project's context and develop an online monitoring system. Surveys and other modes of data collection will ensure that gender-based causes of vulnerability and barriers to sustainable livelihoods are identified, recorded, and analyzed. Output 3.
