4. Approach • Continuous and systematic collecting, analysing and using of information in order to improve the performance of TGPSH • Providing continuous information on whether TGPSH is proceeding as plannedfocussing strongly on results (RBM) • Covering all programme needs (reporting to BMZ and internal steering of progress) Monitoring and Evaluation - overall programme

5. Activities - (bullet pts key activities) • Develop a framework, in which the programme monitoring takes place (components and overall programme) • Assign responsabilities and train accordingly to ensure regular update of monitoring system • Regularly analyse national and internal programme data and provide feedback on progress • Support writing reports to BMZ and other stakeholders on programme progress • Support preparation of programme progress Review Monitoring and Evaluation overall Programme

6. Challenges • Complexity of TGPSH • Different levels and different geographical areas of interventions • Dependency on foreign sources of data (HMIS, TDHS.....), that are collected following own schedule • Dependency on inputs of staff members to “feed” the system and keeping up motivation to do so Monitoring and Evaluation- overall programme

7. Next steps • Analyse new incoming data in regards to TGPSH goals, objectives and strategies • Define a framework for the TGPSH monitoring system and put it in place (consultancy planned for first week of November) • Support the preparation of the joint reporting to BMZ in terms provision of actual data Monitoring and Evaluation- overall programme
