Revision as of 14:09, 27 January 2010

The focus of the EnDev 2 M&E Sytem has shifted from Outcome Monitoring (EnDev 1) to Outcome and Impact Monitoring (EnDev 2). Therefore the Monitoring Group is developing recommendations for a "proper" impact M&E System.

We recommend to:

  • use the recommended list of indicators
  • conduct baseline studies before project intervention and impact studies after households, social infrastructure or SMEs got access to a form of modern energy
  • use a theory based approach by applying the result chain for developing the study design
  • use a mixed methods approach: the logic of the comparative advantages of methods: that means the mix of quantitative (standarised household interviews) and qualitative methods (open/ semi-structured interviews with key persons and households or focus group discussions)
  • to include control groups if possible (households which do not have acces to modern energy) into your baseline and impact study 

The following table shows typical steps for baseline and impact studies, which we would recommend and support.

 

1. Preperation

Tasks Materials/ Support Library
Terms for Consultants/ Enumerators
  • Sample Terms for national / international consultants
  • Sample Terms for enumerators

Developing of Questionnaires, interview guidelines, PRA tools (MAPP), observation criteria and other tools (summary of methods)
  • Questionnaires for HH (stoves), stove producers, social institutions and restaurants using ICS
  • PRA tools for focus group discussions (MAPP)
  • Interview guidelines for village authorities
  • Observation criteria for stoves in use (example lists of good cooking practices and of stove conditions)
