Title
When and how to develop an impact-oriented monitoring and evaluation system
Abstract
This guidance note focuses on:
• what an impact-oriented monitoring and evaluation
system entails
• why an organisation may want to establish such a system
• when integrating an impact-orientation into an monitoring
and evaluation system is most useful
• what should be considered in developing the monitoring
and evaluation system, or in tweaking an existing system,
to become more impact-focused.
The primary audience for this guidance note is internal and
external monitoring and evaluation advisors involved in
designing and implementing, and/or assessing monitoring
and evaluation systems to include a focus on impact.
It will also be useful for senior management of organisations
who need to know how best to plan for a sustainable
monitoring and evaluation system that supports impact
assessment or to adapt an existing system to incorporate an
impact perspective.
