  1. M&E TRAINING MODULES Selecting indicators

  2. SELECTING INDICATORS Clarify reference frameworks Identify users' key questions Develop initial listing of indicators Verify with criteria Identify means of verification Identify frequency of reporting Select optimal set Revise, Change, update

  3. INDICATORS: CRITERIA S M A R T S P I C E D pecific easurable(and also reliable, comparable, contextually appropriate) chievable(and also cost effective) elevant ime-bound(and also sensitive) ubjective articipatory nterpreted and communicable ross checked and compared mpowering iverse and disaggregated

  4. LEVELS OF PRECISION ? ? ? ? Detection Is the problem present at all? Magnitude What is the extent and severity of the problem? Disaggregation Breaking down information to differentiate by sub-groups. Cause What gives the problem its magnitude and characteristics?

  5. PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Impact Impact Measure the quality and quantity of long-term results generated by programme outputs. Measure the intermediate results generated by programme outputs. They often correspond to any change in people’s behaviour as a result of programme. Outcome Outcome Measure the quantity, quality and timeliness of the products — goods or services — that are the result of an activity/project/programme. Output Output Measure the progress of activities in a programme/project and the way these are carried out . Process Process Input Input Measure the quantity, quality and timeliness of resources provided for an activity/project/programme.

  6. EXAMPLE Impact Impact Reduction in morbidity and mortality Proportion of target population who meet prescribed standards of behaviour Outcome Outcome Number whose behaviour change Output Output Number whose opinions change Number who learn the facts Number who read the literature Process Process Number of people who receive the literature Input Input Amount of literature distributed Number of pieces of literature available for distribution
