| dc.description.abstract | The Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (MEAL) Framework is a crucial tool for organizations to monitor and evaluate the performance and results of their programs. The aim of this research project work was to assess the Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning practice at AIDS Healthcare Foundation – Ethiopia. A descriptive design using mixed approach was adopted. Questionnaire and document review were used as primary and secondary data source respectively. Census method was adopted where 33 respondents from the organization's workforce participated in filling out the questionnaire. The study's findings show that while the organization has a solid Monitoring and Evaluation system, the framework's accountability and learning elements are still in their infancy. The staff members executing MEAL activities do not receive regular updates or training on MEAL practice, and there is no integrated MEAL plan. The study also revealed that there are impediments to communication while MEAL activities are being carried out, a lack of staff familiarity with MEAL framework, and a lack of resources to adequately evaluate and present the data in time for decision-making. The organization must therefore develop a MEAL plan that is properly tailored to its requirements. To reach a consensus about the MEAL activities taking place within the organization, the staff needs to be sensitized. Furthermore, there should be sufficient personnel and time to plan, execute, analyze, and present the outcomes of MEAL operations | |
