Background

About Nicholas Mbata

As a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) Officer at RefugePoint, I support data collection, analysis, and reporting to enhance evidence-based decision-making. I conduct self-reliance assessments and contribute to the development of MEL frameworks and dashboards to track program outcomes. I participate in learning initiatives, identify opportunities for MEL innovation, and support donor reporting and external evaluations. Additionally, I ensure data quality, uphold compliance with data protection policies, and provide insights for program improvement. By transforming data into actionable strategies, I help strengthen RefugePoint’s impact, advancing refugee self-reliance and well-being through effective, data-driven programming. I use various tools and platforms, such as taroworks, SPSS, R, Python,SQL,Tableau, Salesforce, and Excel, to collect/generate, process, visualize, and communicate high-quality data and insights that inform decision-making. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Management of Environment and Agroecosystems from the University of Nairobi, and currently pursuing data science.
