5. Monitoring and Reporting on Key Metrics
Objective:
To track the progress of partnerships and projects related to informal settlement improvements and backyard community development that are initiated during and after the SCSPR-81 event. This task will ensure that progress is measured against predefined targets for improved housing, sanitation, and community services.
Task Description:
- Establish Key Metrics and Targets:
- Define key performance indicators (KPIs) for the projects and partnerships resulting from the SCSPR-81 event. These KPIs should align with the event’s objectives, such as improving housing quality, increasing access to sanitation, enhancing community participation, and boosting local economic opportunities.
- Set target benchmarks for each KPI. For example, the target could be to improve housing conditions by 20% within a year or to increase access to sanitation by 30% within six months.
- Develop Tracking Tools:
- Create monitoring tools (e.g., spreadsheets, dashboards, project management platforms) to track the progress of partnerships and projects. These tools should be easy to use for both internal teams and external project partners.
- Design templates for data collection on housing improvements, sanitation upgrades, local employment generation, and other relevant outcomes.
- Ensure that tracking tools can accommodate both quantitative (e.g., number of homes upgraded) and qualitative (e.g., community satisfaction) data.
- Track Partnership Outcomes:
- Monitor the performance of strategic partnerships initiated during the event. This includes tracking:
- Project implementation status (e.g., milestones, completion dates)
- Financial contributions and investments
- Community participation and engagement levels
- Policy impacts and changes
- Regularly update progress reports for each partnership and project, identifying any challenges or delays.
- Monitor the performance of strategic partnerships initiated during the event. This includes tracking:
- Periodic Reporting:
- Prepare monthly and quarterly progress reports that highlight the achievements, challenges, and lessons learned from the partnerships and projects.
- Include visual representations (charts, graphs) to make the reports easy to understand for stakeholders, including donors, partners, and the broader community.
- Share the reports with internal teams, stakeholders, and local partners to ensure transparency and accountability.
- Post-Event Evaluation:
- After the event, conduct a post-event evaluation to assess the impact of the partnerships and projects on local communities. This evaluation should consider both short-term and long-term effects.
- Provide recommendations for scaling successful projects and addressing any gaps or challenges identified during the monitoring phase.
Output Format:
- Monitoring Dashboard (Excel, Google Sheets, or specialized project management software)
- Progress Reports (PDF or Word)
- Data Collection Templates (Excel, Google Forms)
