Alfredo Alexander Torres

Agricultural Engineer with a Master's in Regional Urban Planning, offering over 22 years of experience in Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) in development projects, working with international agencies such as USAID, IICA, the European Union, OCHA, and the Bureau of Refugees and Migration Populations. I have led and coordinated evaluation processes across Central and South America, designing and implementing monitoring strategies for projects focused on vulnerable populations and ethnic minorities, including migrants, displaced persons, Afro-descendants, Indigenous groups, youth, and women. I am experienced in developing and analyzing methodologies for collecting both quantitative and qualitative data through semi-structured interviews, focus groups, impact control, and participatory observation. I have led baseline, intermediate, and impact evaluations, ensuring the generation of strategic lessons learned for decision-making. Additionally, I have designed organizational strengthening methodologies based on indices like the OPI (Organizational Performance Index), optimizing the operational capacity and sustainability of local organizations. Throughout my career, I have produced high-quality analytical reports, monitoring plans, logical frameworks, and best practice manuals. My managerial experience has allowed me to lead multidisciplinary teams in complex environments, ensuring the achievement of strategic objectives in highly vulnerable contexts.
