Why Do We Care about M&E?
M&E helps the CTF to understand…how a program is being carried out if grant requirements are being methow to avoid dispersing limited resources
activities with little impact on biodiversity
General M&E involves:
Review of periodic reportsTracking expendituresField visits Approval of changes to
projects
Two Types of Indicators
Project completion indicators
Biodiversity impact indicators
Do CTFs Usually Perform M&E?
Many CTFs wait with M&E
CTFs are less inclined todo technical monitoring of activitiesmonitor outputs and overall objectivesconduct comprehensive project evaluations
Best Practices for M&E
CTFs should require each grantee to:Include goals and indicators for each projectCollect relevant baseline dataSubmit data several times during projectMeasure changes in key indicators
Questions???
Are there any helpful tools that can help guide M&E? Is M&E part of a Fund’s operating/ administrative costs?
