Monitoring
…is the systematic and routine collection of information from projects and programmes for four main purposes:
-
To learn from experiences to improve practices and activities in the future;
-
To have internal and external accountability of the resources used and the results obtained;
-
To take informed decisions on the future of the initiative;
-
To promote empowerment of beneficiaries of the initiative.
Evaluation 
…is assessing, as systematically and objectively as possible, a completed project or programme (or a phase of an ongoing project or programme that has been completed). Evaluations appraise data and information that inform strategic decisions, thus improving the project or programme in the future.
Monitoring & Evaluation
M&E is an embedded concept and constitutive part of every project or programme design (“must be”).
