WHAT IS MONITORING AND EVALUTION:
This
section provide a brief introduction to what M&E is, together with a
selection of recommended reading and further links to help you get
started.
Monitor:
Monitor is the systematic and routine collection of information from projects and programmes for 4 main purposes:
1: To learn from experiences to improve practices and activities in the future;
2:To have internal and external accountability of the resources used and the results obtained;
3:To take informed decisions on the future of the initiative;
4:To promote empowerment of beneficiaries of the initiative.
Monitoring
is a periodically recurring task already beginning in the planning
stage of a project or programme. Monitoring allows results, processes
and experiences to be documented and used as a basis to steer
decision-making and learning processes. Monitoring is checking progress
against plans. The data acquired through monitoring is used for
evaluation.
Evaluation.is assessing, as systematically and
objectively as possible, a completed project or programme (or a phase of
an ongoing project or programme that has been completed). Evaluations
appraise data and information that inform strategic decisions, thus
improving the project or programme in the future.
Evaluations should help to draw conclusions about five main aspects of the intervention:
relevance
effectiveness
efficiency
impact
sustainability
Information gathered in relation to these aspects during the monitoring process provides the basis for the evaluative analysis.
Monitoring & Evaluation:
M&E
is an embedded concept and constitutive part of every project or
programme design (“must be”). M&E is not an imposed control
instrument by the donor or an optional accessory (“nice to have”) of any
project or programme. M&E is ideally understood as dialogue on
development and its progress between all stakeholders.
In
general, monitoring is integral to evaluation. During an evaluation,
information from previous monitoring processes is used to understand the
ways in which the project or programme developed and stimulated change.
Monitoring focuses on the measurement of the following aspects of an
intervention:
1:On quantity and quality of the implemented activities outputs: What do we do? How do we manage our activities?
2:On
processes inherent to a project or programme (outcomes: What were the
effects /changes that occurred as a result of your intervention?
3:On
processes external to an intervention (impact: Which broader, long-term
effects were triggered by the implemented activities in combination
with other environmental factors?)
The evaluation process is an
analysis or interpretation of the collected data which delves deeper
into the relationships between the results of the project/programme, the
effects produced by the project / programme and the overall impact of
the project / programme.
