| dc.description.abstract | A good monitoring and evaluation system is a key ingredient to good performance of a project. It is a way of being answerable and signifying transparency to the stakeholders as it provides for accountability and transparency. It also assists learning of an organization by documenting lessons gained during the execution of the projects and using the same in the ensuing project planning and implementation or by sharing with other implementers the experience earned. The objective of this research is to assess the practice of M&E in 10 Ethiopian NGOs, the main reason why they adopt it, and the challenges they experienced while practicing. To achieve the study objective an exploratory design with a qualitative approach has been employed. The primary data were collected through survey questionnaire and making interview of M&E expertise in the 10 NGOs. The findings of the study shows that the M&E practice of the NGOs under study is hindered by inadequate fund allocated to M&E, absence of sufficient M&E expertise, non-involvement of stakeholders specifically beneficiaries in M&E process, not documenting lessons learned, and selective dissemination of M&E findings. The main driver of the M&E practice is to be accountable and transparent to the donors. Generally the research recommends the allocation of enough fund and resources, amendment of proclamation number 621/2009and introduction of participatory approach. | en_US |
