• Sommario/riassunto: After more than a decade of development investments in monitoring and evaluation few countries are able to regularly report on how effective their policies and programs are in achieving the results they ; desire. It is not through lack of good M&E design, nor political mandates to support the effort, but from a lack of sustained management and delivery of effective M&E programs within established organizations. Building Sustainable Monitoring and Evaluation Systems will help improve the capacity of any organization committed to measure, monitor and manage to development results.
