A brief guide to Memory Work Monitoring and Evaluation

Monitoring and Evaluation (M & E) provides donors, partners, community members and policy makers with better means for learning from past experience, improving service delivery, planning and allocating resources and demonstrating results as part of accountability to key stakeholders.

The purpose of this document by Philippe Denis and Radikobo Ntsimane is to assist management and staff of community-based organisations involved in memory work in monitoring and evaluating their programmes.

This document is based on the experience of the Sinomlando Centre for Oral History and Memory Work in Africa, a Pietermaritzburg-based organisation involved in memory work for orphans and vulnerable children since 2000. Several workshops on monitoring and evaluation took place between 2003 and 2005, the material gathered during these workshops were used to compile the present booklet. (2005)
