Abstract
A diagnosis of a country's
monitoring and evaluation (M&E) activities is
indispensable if that country is to develop projects or
policy proposals to improve the impact of M&E. This note
provides a guide to some of the topics that need to be
considered when undertaking such a diagnosis. These topics
emphasize both the institutional analysis of factors that
drive demand for M&E and the technical factors that
drive supply. For each of the nine topics identified, this
note discusses some of the major issues analysts would need
to consider. This discussion principally centers on
reviewing how these issues were covered in recent M&E
studies for a number of developed and developing countries.
