These systems for monitoring and evaluation (M&E) are used to measure the quantity, quality, and targeting of the goods and services-the outputs-that the state provides and to measure the outcomes and impacts resulting from these outputs. These systems are also a vehicle to facilitate understanding of the causes of good and poor performance.Independent evaluation studies.Public administrationEvaluationPublic administrationEvaluationCase studiesPublic administrationEconomic aspectsPublic administrationEconomic aspectsCase studiesElectronic books.Public administrationEvaluation.Public administrationEvaluationPublic administrationEconomic aspects.Public administrationEconomic aspects352.3/5Mackay Keith Robin1951-939253World Bank.Independent Evaluation Group.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451943403321How to build M & E systems to support better government2277157UNINA
