Overview:

The M&E Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP) is a program management tool designed to set the methods and indicators to progress towards the goals and objectives identified in the Notice of Funding Opportunity.

MONITORING & EVALUATION (M&E) NARRATIVE

Summary:

Describe how you plan to monitor and evaluate the performance and outcomes and results/milestones of your proposed project. In your narrative summary below, please make sure to include key personnel, proposed structure for monitoring and evaluation activities, and describe any methods used to capture indicators (e.g. focus groups, surveys, etc.), as well as any technologies used (e.g. online surveys, social media analysis programs, etc.).

Theory of Change:

To demonstrate that the success/impact of your project can be measured, please include a brief Theory of Change statement, or series of statements, for the project. This can be done with one, or a series of If-Then statements: “If __________ are completed, then these outcomes (be specific) will result in __________.”
