M&E System Workshop on Indicator SetforRural Water Supply and Sanitation 22nd November 2007
Principles • Simplicity. The M&E system should be as simple and robust as possible in the first phase. Once the first phase is successful the system can be made more sophisticated. • Improvement rather than replacement. The M&E system should be based as far as possible on improving existing practices rather introducing new ones • Flexible and province specific. The M&E system should be flexible, province-centred and adaptable to province specific characteristics. Each province has a different starting point and the transition plan to move from the existing to the proposed system will be different. • Cost effectiveness. The M&E system should cost effective and adequately resourced. Provinces can be adopt a sampling approach where appropriate.
Principles • Accountability. Responsibilities for M&E should be clearly allocated by each province and correspond to mandates of the various decentralised institutions and make use of the best qualified available personnel at local level. • Nationally coherent. The centre will ensure coherence by defining the indicators, specifying the minimum provincial reporting outputs, providing provincial support tools for launching and maintaining the M&E system and ensuring timely and coherent national reporting. • Independent. Although certain tasks can be outsourced, the database should be under state management and the reporting system should not depend on availability and knowledge of proprietary IT tools • Focussed on the end use. Results from the M&E should be made available for planning and decision-making at all relevant levels.
