La PNE vise à contribuer à la promotion d’une bonne gouvernance, en développant la culture et la pratique de l’évaluation à tous les niveaux et dans tous les domaines. La systématisation de l’évaluation permettra à terme d’améliorer la gestion du développement au Niger et par conséquent le bien-être de ses populations.
Rapid Implementation Evaluation on the Frontline Monitoring and Support Project Management Approach
November 2023
DPME commissioned an evaluation of the Frontline Monitoring and Support (FM&S) Project Management Approach (PMA) with the primary objective of assessing its effectiveness and contribution to the overarching goals of the FM&S. The evaluation, designed to be impartial, specifically aims to determine how well the intervention aligns with its objectives and impacts service delivery. It provides an in-depth understanding of the progress made in achieving FMSP objectives, supporting accountability and evaluating the program’s relevance to the NDP 2030 imperatives.
The rapid evaluation approach allows for real-time data collection on PMA’s implementation, offering insights crucial for immediate adjustments and improvements. As the department plans to continue employing this approach, the evaluation’s findings, conclusions, and recommendations are expected to play a pivotal role in enhancing the overall implementation of the FM&S.
