Colombia Monitoring and Evaluation Program

The Colombia Monitoring and Evaluation Program (MEP) supports USAID/Colombia’s management information needs to facilitate informed program management decisions, and shape the mission’s long-term strategic direction. The program’s primary objective is to develop an M&E mechanism that provides continued performance monitoring, verification, and impact evaluation of program results, including environmental compliance.

At the center of the program is the design, establishment and operation of a Clearing House Management Information System (MIS) for the collection, archiving and reporting of data used to measure the performance and impact of programs that implement the USAID/Colombia Mission’s Strategic Framework 2010-2014 as well as constitute USAID’s contributions to the Colombia Strategic Development Initiative (CSDI) under the direction of the US Embassy. 

The MEP has six Program Results:

• USAID Mission Strategic Framework PMP refined and enhanced.
• Mission-wide USAID/Colombia M&E Clearinghouse developed and implemented.
• Mission-wide Activity-level M&E services
• Mission-wide Activity-level environmental compliance verification conducted both within and outside of CSDI regions.
• USAID CSDI PMP refined and enhanced.
• USAID CSDI Impact Evaluation conducted and results reported on a scheduled basis.
