Coastal and Wetland Biodiversity Management Project BGD/99/G31 Hakaluki Haor Draft Conservation Management Plan 7.4.9 Monitoring and Evaluation The monitoring and evaluating (M&E) of on-going efforts to manage Hakaluki Haor as an ECA is a potentially powerful tool that can be used to enhance overall performance by improving effectiveness and efficiency of day-to-day and on-the-ground implementation of conservation activities. In addition, the lessons learned from the M&E process can be fed back into management planning as a way supporting the development of replicable ECA management model for Bangladesh. M&E will therefore be an important, as well as integral part of the management process for Hakaluki Haor. Integrity of the M&E process will be maintained by appointing an external team. Management Actions • Identify the M&E team taking into account capacity, skill and technical expertise • Develop terms of reference for each member of the team • Determine the duration and number of M&E missions to be conducted each year • Articulate the aims and objectives of each M&E mission • Articulate the approach and methodology to be used for each M&E mission • Develop strategies to involve community groups and relevant government agencies as part of each M&E mission • Develop monitoring indicators • After each mission document weaknesses and gaps and develop recommendations which address these issues and improve overall performance • After each mission document lessons learned and make these available to the relevant individual(s) charged with developing a replicable ECA management model for Bangladesh Primary Outcome/ Output • Monitoring and Evaluation is integrated into the management framework of Hakaluki Haor and is used to strengthen and improve conservation efforts Constraints • Adopting change based on results from M&E missions is often met with resistant and not effectively incorporated into operations and decision making processes • Regular M&E missions place a significant drain on financial resources Prepared by UNOPS Consultant Mr. Sulma Warne August/ September 2005 for Project BGD/99/G31 49
