Abstract
Measurement for Change proposes an integration of monitoring, evaluation, and learning
into decision-making systems that support sustainable transition of interventions to scale.
It was developed using a cyclical, interactive 1-year dialogue between early childhood
development (ECD) practitioners and academics from across the globe. Details are
presented in Krapels et al. (1) as part of this special issue in Frontiers. In this paper,
we trace the developments that inspired Measurement for Change and the novel ways
in which the approach and the special issue was developed. The experience, and the
reflections on this experience, are intended to inform those implementing initiatives
that similarly seek to integrate practitioner- and academic experiences in support of
sustainable transitions of interventions to scale.
