This session explored innovative Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) approaches in carbon and climate finance, featuring insights from Pamela Kalimukwa (Mafisa) and Seong Hah Cho (Proximity Designs). Seong shared how Proximity Designs integrates remote sensing with field data to monitor no-burn rice farming in Myanmar, while Pamela discussed Mafisa’s use of radio-frequency identification (RFID), GPS, and digital tools to track livestock health and carbon sequestration in Zambia. The session highlighted diverse M&E models and technologies, emphasizing that while digital tools enhance scale and efficiency, field-level verification remains critical to ensuring data accuracy and integrity.
