Project Description
TMG assisted in structuring the M&E Unit, training staff, and overseeing the setting-up of the systems including designing and developing an M&E database and developing PMPs. TMG strengthened performance monitoring systems with respect to established indicators and reporting on program progress. TMG also initiated work with ASEZA’s own M&E system and suggested practical steps that could be taken to revise and improve the existing system for management review of performance of different directorates towards slated goals and sub-goals, particularly linking this with the Finance Directorate, and the linkage between budget and achievement of organizational objectives and goals.
