3*f MES Methodological Franework<br />
The suggested approach to monitoring and evaluation<br />
inc3ades the use of baseline studies and control communities<br />
{groups of villages without a drilled well), while sane<br />
baseline data may have to be collected retrospectivePy, there is<br />
a substantial mount of infomatian from recent studies in the<br />
Bay Regicn and the Central Rangelands which can be used to<br />
develop fairly rccusate baseline prafiles. The recamended<br />
strategy is relatively intersive but justifiable in view UP the<br />
high cost of drilled ueils and the fact t5at 3ittle is known<br />
&bout their effects on tka people and the environment of<br />
Somalia. Ths suggested approach involves 3-4 visits a year,<br />
lasting 2-4 days each to a stratified sample of- villages in weil<br />
site target zones. Villages i~ control cozi~~~unities will also be<br />
surveyed 3-4 tines a year, buc ozly for o?e or two days each.<br />
Cozn,zunitbes with diesei pumps znd civil works require more field<br />
work than those with hand pumps,<br />
e era "comunityv, or YargeE zone", refers to all<br />
villages within a five to six kflunsler radius of the well<br />
andfor with a representative an the Camunity Water Camittee.<br />
**Comunity" and "target zone" are used ta distinguish this area<br />
from other pufitical-administrative boundaries which may extend<br />
far beyond srx kiLometers. Four to six coxrmunitics will be<br />
intensively surveyed is each region- Data collection 2111 occur<br />
in the weLl site village and at least two other villages within<br />
the six kilometer lirsic,. Other cornunities w ith WDA wells w ill<br />
be less intensively surceyed, but should be visited at least<br />
twice a pear for one to two days each.<br />
The recornended HE5 activities would require between 90 and<br />
150 days of field work in a region with 20 wells. T3ey could,<br />
however, be integrated into the cornunity par?..icipation program<br />
and thus visits tb support well cu~aittzes could also be used to<br />
administer aonitaring fams-
