    (Addis Ababa University, 2023-07) Fiker Kassahun; Solomon Markos (PhD)
    The study aimed to assess the performance monitoring and evaluation system in the case of World Vision Ethiopia. The researcher employed both quantitative and qualitative (mixed methods) approaches. Exploratory research designs were also used in the study. To conduct this study, the researcher used simple random sampling technique by which a certain number of respondents are selected at random from the population of employees working at World Vision Ethiopia projects. In this study, only primary data was collected through structured questionnaire and interview. Data collected through questionnaires was analyzed using quantitative descriptive and inferential statistics with the help of IBM SPSS software version 26. The study revealed that the Monitoring and Evaluation system in World Vision Ethiopia has some strengths, such as having a well-developed Monitoring and Evaluation plan, adequate budget, effective logical framework, and clear policy. However, there are also areas that require improvement, such as disseminating Monitoring and Evaluation reports, involving stakeholders in the Monitoring and Evaluation process, and effectively using stakeholder feedback. The study highlights the importance of a well-developed Monitoring and Evaluation plan, adequate budget, effective logical framework, and clear policy, as well as involving stakeholders and improving communication and dissemination of Monitoring and Evaluation information, for a wellperforming Monitoring and Evaluation system. The research recommends that World Vision Ethiopia should develop a communication strategy to ensure that stakeholders are informed about the Monitoring and Evaluation plan, logical framework, and Monitoring and Evaluation reports. It is also recommended that World Vision Ethiopia should involve stakeholders in the Monitoring and Evaluation process by engaging them in the design, implementation, and evaluation of Monitoring and Evaluation activities and should use stakeholder feedback to improve program or project performance and inform decision-making
