Over the past year, the Leadership Dialogue Series, hosted by Miracle Foundation India and @IACN6 , has brought together leaders from across the development ecosystem to explore how systems can better strengthen families and prevent unnecessary separation of children.
As we conclude the 2025-26 series, the 10th edition of Leadership Dialogues will focus on a critical question: How do we know if family strengthening efforts are truly working? The discussion will focus on defining key indicators that meaningfully capture the success of family strengthening interventions, and reflect real outcomes for children and families.
Participants will also explore practical ways to measure progress at individual, family, community, and system levels, including the role of data-driven technology in strengthening monitoring, learning, and decision-making. Do join in.
