PROJECT MONITORING & EVALUATION (M&E) FOR RELIGIOUS

Why M&E?
Monitoring and Evaluation is important to assess that your project is achieving set targets. M&E are relevant to donors who need to assess whether your organisation is a reliable partner. By reviewing milestones and final outcomes of your projects, donors will decide on the accountability of your organisation, upon which further collaborations could be established. M&E has become kind of a coined term to describe the process by which organizations generate evidence about their results. Monitoring and evaluation activities cannot be separated from project planning. M&E is more than simply “monitoring” and “evaluation.” It is about project planning, defining results frameworks and indicators, choosing the best data collection methods and approaches, collecting, analyzing, and most important, making sure results are used.
