Participatory monitoring, evaluation and reporting: online manual PACT Produced by: Pact / Pact Publications (1998) Manual designed for South African NGOs "This manual explains why participation is important and how to achieve effective stakeholder participation; the role of monitoring in sustaining progress toward better organizational effectiveness; how evaluation helps an organization to assess its capacity; and the critical role of reporting in keeping stakeholders informed. It then deals with applying the Organizational Capacity Assessment Tool (OCAT) in practice, together with examples. A step by step guide to designing and implementing a Participatory Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting (PME&R) information system is included. Although it has been specifically adapted for use by South African NGOs, OCAT can be used by NGOs in other countries." [author] (From ELDIS)
