1. LGCDP Monitoring and Evaluation Framework The development and refinement of a Monitoring and Evaluation Framework for LGCDP followed a three-step sequence: a) a careful, participatory analysis of the results statements, b) an analysis which key aspects of the result statement should be covered by indicators, c) the development of indicators with indicator baselines, indicator targets, means of verification, the frequency of collection and the responsible person or unit for collecting the data. These recommendations for a LGCDP M&E framework are the result of a broad, participatory process. They emerged from three one-day workshops with key stakeholders from the MLD, government agencies and development partners (DPs), individual meetings with key partners, a de-briefing workshop and two rounds of written comments on indicators and the draft framework. 1.1. GOAL The overarching goal of LGCDP is “to contribute towards poverty reduction through inclusive responsive and accountable local governance and participatory community-led development that will ensure increased involvement of women, Dalits, Adibasi, Janajatis, Muslims Madhesis, disadvantaged groups in the local governance process”. To keep the LGCDP Monitoring and Evaluation Framework simple, yet effective, it is recommended to limit monitoring of the overall goal for two reasons: • An overall monitoring of national poverty reduction in Nepal is: (a) too ambitious for LGCDP and the MLD, and (b) already done extensively by a number of other actors in Nepal, including the National Planning Commission through its Poverty Monitoring and Analysis System and the Central Bureau of Statistics. • The second half of the goal statement (“through inclusive responsive and accountable local governance and participatory community-led development that will ensure increased involvement of women, Dalits, Adibasi, Janajatis, Muslims Madhesis, disadvantaged groups in the local governance process”) merely defines the means used for poverty reduction. These means are already captured on the purpose and outcome level and do not need to be monitored separately. Instead of building a parallel (and redundant) poverty monitoring system to monitor LGCDP’s goal, it is recommended to make use of existing poverty monitoring systems like the Poverty Monitoring and Analysis System (PMAS) of the National Planning Commission, the District Monitoring Information System (DMIS), the Nepal Human Development Reports and the Millennium Development Reports. If needed, LGCDP can provide specific support to these poverty monitoring systems to obtain poverty data at a highly disaggregated level, for example by supporting the District Poverty Monitoring and Analysis System (DPMAS). 3
