| Summary: | Although many development partners have
been discussing impact and evaluation for the last 30 years
of international development, there still seems to be
disagreement on indicators, impact, and how to collect the
data, and discussions are ongoing. Evaluations and impact
assessments are crucial for International Finance
Corporation (IFC) advisory services projects. They help
identify issues in implementing strategies that ultimately
stand in the way of realizing the project's goals and
provide vital lessons for the success of future endeavors.
Based on experiences at the IFC South Asia Enterprise
Development Facility (SEDF), the authors want to share some
lessons on how to collect monitoring and evaluation
(M&E) data in the most effective way and what data to
look for. |
