About this file

This document is a Performance Monitoring Plan (PMP) template provided for applicants to the U.S. Consulate General Lagos Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program. The template outlines the required structure for monitoring project results and impacts, with three main sections: Project Context, Project Objectives and Indicators, and Project Activities.

The template requires grantees to align their projects with NOFO objectives and develop up to three specific project objectives with corresponding indicators, baselines, targets, and data sources. Quarterly reporting is mandatory, including updates on indicators, milestones, and narrative assessments of progress. The document provides examples of objectives and indicators across three areas: civic involvement, CSO-government partnerships, and private sector engagement. Each project objective must be supported by specific activities with defined completion dates, ensuring clear linkage between actions and intended outcomes.

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.
