Monitoring
What is Monitoring?
M is the regular observation and recording of activities taking
place in a project or prog.
It is a process of routinely gathering information on all aspects
of the project.
It is the regular periodic measurement of progress towards
policy or project objectives.
To monitor is to check on how project activities are
progressing.
Also involves giving feedback about the progress of the
project to the donors, implementors and beneficiaries of the
project.
