The Department of Planning, Monitoring & Evaluation coordinates government, planning, monitoring and evaluation to address poverty, unemployment and inequality. This is done through the mobilisation of stakeholders and harnessing of resources towards the implementation of the national development plan as a guide for the country’s developmental trajectory.
