Governments around the world face
ongoing pressures from citizens to provide more and better
services, and to do this under a tight fiscal environment.
This provides the context for government efforts to ensure
their policies and programs are as effective, and as
efficient, as possible. An emphasis on government
performance has led a number of governments to create formal
systems for monitoring and evaluating (M&E) their
performance on a regular, planned, and systematic basis with
the objective of improving it. The focus of this book is on
these government M&E systems: what they comprise, how
they are built and managed, and how they can be used to
improve government performance. M&E systems focus on
measuring the results produced by government its outputs,
outcomes, and impacts. The M&E system may exist at the
level of an individual agency, entire sector, or the
government as a whole. M&E can provide unique
information about the performance of government policies,
programs, and projects at the national, sector, and
sub-national levels. It can identify what works, what does
not, and the reasons why. M&E also provides information
about the performance of a government, of individual
ministries and agencies, and of managers and their staff.
This book endeavors to expand the frontiers of issues that
have been researched and analyzed. However, there are still
a number of issues that are still not understood well
enough. This book presents case studies on several countries
that have succeeded in achieving high levels of utilization
of M&E information, including Australia, Canada, Chile,
and Mexico. |
