This component will strive to establish a robust geo-referenced M&E system to facilitate seamless progress monitoring. The M&E system will harmonize with RGoB’s M&E system as mandated for all projects, as well as, ensure full complementarity between IFAD, WFP and the GAFSP M&E requirements. Additionally, the PMU M&E will design formats to capture and collect critical data from the field level as per IFAD project management requirements. The M&E system will also serve to highlight areas where immediate intervention and remedial action is needed. The system will be participatory and decentralized involving key target groups so that the target groups will participate in identification of project activities and monitoring implementation of project. These efforts will eventually lead to efficient knowledge management.
