The Earthquake Housing Reconstruction Program has maintained a sound Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) systems in place to ensure the project activities are being implemented in a manner to meet the specified development objectives. In addition to M&E firm hired by Project Management Unit, CLPIU Building has its own M&E system and CLPIU GMALI has a Third Party Monitoring Agent for safeguard compliance. Similarly, there is provision of third-party monitoring through World Bank administered MDTF, which covers 11 most affected districts excluding Kathmandu Valley. An effective M&E and reporting system are crucial not only to ensure compliance to earthquake-resilient reconstruction guidelines and adequacy of technical assistance, but also to take course corrections.
The monitoring and evaluation systems have been based upon the information collected during the EHDC (Earthquake Housing Damage and Characteristics) survey and data generated during the program cycle. A robust IT system based on the Management Information System is in place to support the various databases and data streams.
Monitoring & Reporting
The main objective of the monitoring and reporting component is to develop a system to produce and circulate information on the program’s progress and performance and thus, promote efficiency, transparency and accountability. This process will help to identify existing and potential problems, providing the basis for the implementation of corrective measures for their resolution. It achieves this objective by standardizing procedures for collection and synchronization of field-level operational data to produce indicators that provide quantitative and verifiable measures of efficiency and effectiveness of the program’s implementation.
