On 11 December 2023, the entire SEAQIS team attended the annual evaluation meeting. On this year’s occasion, the evaluation meeting was held in the hall room of The Allure Villas, Pangandaran, West Java. All SEAQIS staff attended the meeting, including all members of the Programme and Training Division, Research and Development Division, ICT, Data, and Evaluation Division, Finance and Infrastructure Division, Partnership and Publication Division, Human Resources and General Affairs Division, and the Board of Directors, including SEAQIS Director, Dr Indrawati.
The evaluation meeting covered all the work done by the staff in 2023. Each division presented their work results for a year. Furthermore, the Board of Directors also gave feedback on what had been presented by each division. Thereafter, the evaluation meeting also provided information regarding the work plan that will be implemented in 2024. In an effort to improve work performance, especially in aspects of communication, the SEAQIS team also participated in capacity-building activities.
Pangandaran Beach, West Java, was also the place where all SEAQIS staff participated in capacity-building activities. Besides the staff, all interns were also involved in an outbound activity on 12 December 2023. During this opportunity, all of them established familiarity as they were grouped into several teams for each game. On the next day, 13 December 2023, all staff and interns went to Citumang River to do body rafting. Afterwards, they were also engaged in SEAQIS’ annual event, the SEA EAA (SEAQIS Employee Achievement Awards), to appreciate all staff for their hard work over the past year. However, there was something different this year because all interns actively participated in organising the event as well as becoming nominees and winners; one of them was “Best Intern”.
Through this series of activities, it is expected that all participants can improve their understanding, skills, and effectiveness at work. In addition, it is hoped that there will be improvements in the work process as well as an increase in the quality of the results achieved. Evaluation and capacity building are also expected to encourage innovation, develop potential, and increase competitiveness, thereby contributing positively to the achievement of goals for the 2024 work plan.
