Monitoring and Evaluation

What is resettlement monitoring and evaluation?

Resettlement monitoring means the collection, analysis, reporting and use of information about the progress of resettlement, based on the Resettlement Plan. Monitoring focuses on physical and financial targets and the delivery of entitlements to people affected. The Executing Agency usually has the full responsibility for internal monitoring. An independent agency is normally appointed by the Executing Agency for external monitoring and evaluation to ensure complete and objective information. The tasks of the external agency are to:

• verify results of internal monitoring;
• assess whether resettlement objectives have been met; specifically, whether livelihoods and living standards have been restored or enhanced;
• assess resettlement efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability, drawing lessons as a guide to future resettlement policy making and planning; and
• ascertain whether the resettlement entitlements were appropriate to meeting the objectives, and whether the objectives were suited to AP conditions.
