My cross-cultural life experience, born in Guatemala and raised in The Netherlands, is at the root of my commitment to help people, so they too can realize their potential, by supporting social change organizations. Trained by my father, Ricardo Wilson-Grau, I have specialized during the past years in Outcome Harvesting methodology. I began as an associated consultant for mid-term or final evaluations applying Outcome Harvesting, then I worked with CARE Guatemala as Monitoring & Evaluation Specialist where I had the opportunity to coach in the use of OH as a planning, monitoring and evaluation tool and led Outcome Harvesting processes. Currently, I work as an independent consultant supporting organisations in the use of Outcome Harvesting, focused on both English and Spanish speaking countries

My relationship with Outcome Harvesting goes back to its earliest days. I am one of its co-developers and have been part of its evolution ever since. Alongside this, I have built 20 years of experience in planning, monitoring, evaluation and learning (PMEL).

I first implemented Outcome Harvesting within an organisation in my role as PM&E Coordinator, before founding my own consultancy more than a decade ago. Since then, I have supported organisations across the world in applying OH: conducting evaluations, training practitioners, and helping teams design monitoring systems grounded in Outcome Harvesting principles.

Through this work, I have developed extensive expertise in facilitating, coaching and adapting OH to the specific needs and contexts of diverse organisations.

As outcome harvesting consultant, I advise on and implement the introduction of Outcome Harvesting for monitoring, evaluation and learning. Since 2004 when we both worked at Oxfam Novib, I have worked at regular intervals with Ricardo Wilson-Grau who introduced me to complexity thinking. In a time when result-based management was dominant, it was exiting to develop tools for dealing with uncertainty, rapid change and dissent, and applying these in grantmaking and strategy development. This laid the foundation for my later engagement with Outcome Harvesting. I lived in India, Mali and Zambia, now based in the Netherlands, working as an advisor, facilitator and trainer on strengthening civil society, organisation development, grantmaking, monitoring, evaluation and learning, mostly in rural Africa and India. I work in English, French and Dutch.
