Course Overview

Now more than ever, funding organizations seek more accountability for the funds they provide
to development projects. Development organizations understand they are more likely to receive
future funding if they can deliver and show results. That’s why employees who have specialized
Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) skills are in demand. This specialized knowledge helps to
assess a project’s performance and its lasting impact. Without an effective MEAL system we would be unable to track progress, make adjustments, discover unplanned effects of programs, or judge the impact that we have made on the lives of those with whom we are working. A MEAL system also helps individuals and teams to be accountable to stakeholders through information sharing and developing a complaints or feedback mechanism which can help to guide programed implementation.
