Monitoring and Evaluation is an exciting area of work because it is currently undergoing rapid changes.

Results Are Here to Stay

Citizens, parliaments and donors are rightly demanding to know what results are being achieved with their money. It has become unacceptable to simply report on the number of people trained. M&E is challenged to provide meaningful information about real changes as the result of a policy or programme.

Increasing Complexity and Speed

We live in an increasingly complex and fast-changing environment. We need M&E that can capture complex causes and effects and provide quick, real-time feedback.

Accelerating Technology

Technology keeps accelerating. This opens wide opportunities for innovations in M&E. We are only beginning to explore the opportunities of big data, ubiquitous smartphones, and satellite images and drones.
