Monitoring and evaluation (M&E)


How does an organization know that its interventions work and that they contribute to social change? By monitoring and evaluating those interventions closely.  Monitoring entails keeping track of the (quality of) the implementation and changes in the context; evaluation has to do with assessing the results and contribution to change. M&E is an essential component of developing, planning and implementing programmes and learning about what works and what does not.
