Doctors of the World: Flaws in its Performance Measurement Framework - Access to health rights Burkina Faso

In this episode, Dr. Wand reviews the Government of Canada-funded $14 Million Doctors of the World https://medecinsdumonde.ca/ project entitled Access to health rights in Northern Burkina Faso. Details about the project can be found here: https://w05.international.gc.ca/projectbrowser-banqueprojets/project-projet/details/P008979001

From a review of the project's Performance Measurement Framework (PMF), he concludes that Doctors of the World cannot claim that their project is responsible for achieving any of the 8 expected outcomes due to the absence of control or comparison groups as well as invalid or missing outcome indicators for some of the 8 expected outcomes for the project.

Dr. Wand has emailed the link to this episode as well as the PMF and summary Excel critique to the Minister of International Development, Doctors of the World, and the shadow critics for international development for the Conservative Party, the NDP, and the Bloc Quebecois.

Dr. Wand has also invited Doctors of the World to respond to his critique in writing and/or be attending his podcast.
