WFP WILL ENSURE THE SRF IS APPLIED AT ALL LOCATIONS:

THE M&E STRATEGY

Vision: M&E and reporting capacities across WFP are sustainably enhanced to ensure project design and implementation are supported by

evidenced-based information that allows the organisation and its donors to ensure efficient improvements in our interventions for

beneficiaries, through learning and adaptation.

IMPROVED

REPORTING &

DECISION-MAKING

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY

“SOFTWARE” STAFF & PARTNER IN THE FIELD

EMPOWERED TO PERFORM

QUALITY M&E IN OPERATIONS

• Includes development of country-managed evaluation guidance to

enable evaluations directly managed by Regional Bureaux and Country

Offices and therefore strengthen the overall evaluation function.

• Equipping staff and partners in the field with corporate guidance, tools,

training, networks and support to encourage best-practice M&E and

quality reporting for WFP operations. Targets: country offices

and partners.

• Targeting key projects with extra corporate M&E analysis, support and guidance, to ensure efficient, quality indicator reporting against

WFP’s Strategic Results Framework.

• Includes development, pilot and roll-out of a WFP’s future M&E tool (COMET) that will allow design,

planning, monitoring, evaluation & reporting on performance of WFP's

projects, linked to other CO and corporate systems.
