Why is monitoring and evaluation so important?
We use monitoring and evaluation for two key purposes:
• to learn about our own activities and results, and to support internal planning and development
• to be accountable to our stakeholders (e.g. donors, service users)
Organisations need to show their efficiency and effectiveness to funders, commissioners and investors. They also need to communicate achievements to a wider public.
However, monitoring and evaluation is also very importance for providing learning and improving the organisation!
