M&E
The primary objective of the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Framework is to provide a picture of Liberia’s progress toward PRS goals by tracking key outcome and output indicators. In addition, the more frequent monitoring of PRS deliverables will enable the Government and its partners, through the Cabinet and LRDC Steering Committee, to act swiftly to make adjustments to programs and activities as needed. This type of robust monitoring will help to assess and ensure the inclusive and sustainable achievement of the goals and strategic objectives for poverty reduction in this PRS.
M & E provides a framework to monitor Liberia’s progress towards its key goals of establishing a stable and secure environment and generating rapid, inclusive, and sustainable growth and development. This will be accomplished by tracking progress in a number of key areas, as outlined in the PRS indicator matrix below. The framework focuses on outcomes and impact, and is complementary to other monitoring activities, such as the tracking by each Pillar on the progress of the deliverables articulated in their action matrices and reporting of partner actions, inputs, and funding.
PRS indicators were selected through the participation of PRS working groups, taking into account the limited statistical and information base and capacity constraints. An M&E collection and reporting architecture was then developed to allow for efficient collection of these data. The capacity for more efficient collection will be built over the PRS period.
While the primary goal of the M&E framework articulated is to monitor the impact of the PRS, PRS deliverables will also be tracked to ensure implementation is proceeding smoothly. In addition, LRDC will monitor financial flows from the Government of Liberia and its development partners in an effort to get a better overall picture of how the Government’s inputs and external support are being used. Efforts will also be undertaken to improve the quality of county-level data over the next three years.
