Transform Collective is a consortium of seven partner organizations committed to advocating and actualizing family-based care as the foundation of child protection. The collective is a multi-year project funded by UBS Optimus Foundation, undertaking implementation and knowledge generation in the area.

• consolidating Program Implementation Pathways (PIP) for all collective partner interventions,
• developing collective-level MERL Framework (Theory of Change and Results Framework),
• defining MERL methodology for the three-year evaluative process,
• creating the performance dashboard and the project’s Management Information System (MIS) plan guiding its operations, and 
• building the capacity of all partners to operationalize the MERL architecture.
