Outcome Harvesting is a method that enables evaluators, grant makers, and managers to identify, formulate, verify, and make sense of outcomes. The method was inspired by the definition of outcome as a change in the behavior, relationships, actions, activities, policies, or practices of an individual, group, community, organization, or institution

Countries are increasingly taking innovative approaches to monitor and evaluate the performance of public policies, programs
and service delivery. There are a number of reasons why this is happening. On the one hand, M&E has to respond to the higher
standards expected of it, and to the fast-changing environment. On the other hand, as technology moves forward, opportunities for innovation in M&E are opening up.

This is Part 2 of a three part series of video lectures conducted by USAID on complexity. This lecture focus on the question 'How do these conceptions of complexity help us think and act?' The lecture begins by looking at predictability and unpredictability in terrorism and civil wars then moves on to a range of tools that can be used for grappling with complexity.

Attending to interrelationships, multiple perspectives, and boundaries is one of three key principles underlying complexity-aware monitoring. This principle emphasizes the importance of using systems concepts when monitoring, regardless of whether the monitoring method is drawn from the systems field, or is a more traditional monitoring method.
