Towards the end of its five-year term, the Improving Productivity and Market Success (IPMS) project recently ran a training of trainers workshop on results-based monitoring and evaluation (M&E).
In this video, Berhanu Gebremedhin outlines the main topics covered in the workshop: An introduction to results-based M&E; the development of a logic model and performance framework of a project; the performance measurement framework; the need for participatory M&E with stakeholders and how to do this; the selection and specification of indicators; data collection and analysis; the production and dissemination of of timely M&E reports; and the institutionalization of M&E and M&E units.
He concludes by emphasizing the focus of the training- it was a training of trainers event – the participants from the Agricultural Growth Program are expected to train on their colleagues; they are also expected to lead M&E efforts at the regional level – guiding implementation as well as writing reports.
