MONITORING & EVALUATING CAPACITY BUILDING IN MALAWI Presentation by: Shamiso Najira and Evans Njewa Environmental Affairs Department Malawi.
Overview • Institutional Set-up • Monitoring and Evaluation Indicators for climate change • Performance Management System, as an M&E tool.
Performance Management System (PMS) • Recently adopted – 2008/2009 financial year in Malawi • Overall objective: Improved performance of the civil service – behavioural change • One specific objective: monitor & evaluate available capacity including M&E of CB • Interactive and hierarchical where surbodinates answer to responsible officers i.e Officer → Director → PS → Minister
Involves isolating planned activities, tasks, targets based on which annual evaluations are made. • High performance will attract incentives e.g pay rise, promotions, necessary training. • Low performance result into detailed analysis of situation to reveal challenges: inadequate skills, resources, etc. • New system in the civil service, departure from the closed system of evaluating performance and capacity development. • System is being piloted and will be evaluated.
Conclusion • EAD underwent functional & structural review • M&E section will be established within the Dept. • Currently M&E informally done through work plans and reports • Previously, no formal M&E exercise for government-initiated activities or CB initiatives • As opposed to donor-funded • PMS will assist to formally monitor and evaluate CB • CC activities integrated into MGDS, in line with govt. development priorities • ensure systematic monitoring and evaluation of programmes, activities and capacity development, including those of climate change.
