Guidance for Applicants

A successful Performance Monitoring Plan ensures that applicants focus on achieving project results, rather than just activities. Results are the outcomes and lasting impact the project. Activities describe specific actions undertaken over a specific time to achieve results.

The key elements of the PMP are:

a) Project Objective(s): statement of the expected results of the project for which implementers will be held accountable

b) Indicators: measures used to gauge progress towards objectives — indicators should be direct, objective, adequate and practical.

c) Project activities: major actions carried out with grant funds; activities are directly linked to and adequate for the achievement of the project objectives.

d) Milestones: target date for the accomplishment of each major activity within the timeframe of the project.
