About the Course
Social protection programs play a critical role in reducing poverty, enhancing resilience, and promoting inclusive economic growth. However, the effectiveness of these programs depends heavily on the strength of their Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) systems. Robust M&E frameworks enable governments and development partners to track progress, ensure accountability, optimize resource utilization, and generate evidence for policy and program improvement.
This training program on Monitoring and Evaluation in Social Protection is designed to strengthen participants’ capacity to design, implement, and manage robust Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) systems for social protection programs. It draws on best practices and frameworks and aligns with global standards.
The course emphasizes results-based management, data-driven decision-making, accountability, and impact assessment in social protection interventions. Participants will also gain hands-on experience in developing M&E frameworks, selecting and operationalizing indicators, conducting rigorous evaluations, and translating data into actionable insights.
