Using GIS Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) to validate your project
Sustainable development projects are becoming more stakeholder centric and looking to measure impact so they can validate where purpose meets profit. Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) is critical for organizations to answer “What are we doing?” , ”Are we doing it well/right?” “Where is the overall impact?” The use of Geospatial tools in monitoring and evaluation makes it possible integrate information from disparate sources for analysis. This course will help you to analyze combinations of mapped variables and present the data in the form of maps, charts and graphs. You will also discover how this kind of analysis can drive improved outcomes.

Why my course is useful
There are many large IT/Engineering/GIS projects that get funded and implemented, but no one has any idea if the resulting product was worth the cost. Every project should have the M&E process applied to it so you can 1) Request more investment for those that are working, 2) Adjust elements of a project that could be better, or 3) Maybe even abandon a project to productively place investment elsewhere.
Why I built it
I’ve had a lot of experience with NGOs as I sit on the boards of World Geospatial Industry Council (WGIC) and the United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management (UN-GGIM). And I find that many of the proposed projects are missing key business oversight. How I got into M&E was through requests by organizations that were asking for my help with metrics. So I leaned on my GIS experience to show the value of where things were happening. This course should be a natural extension to any GIS analyst’s duties.
What I hope for you
I hope you see that making a map of where things are is not as valuable as generating additional metrics to determine project validation and worth. This is an underlying principal for the innovation and the NGO sectors that fight hard for funding. I hope M&E becomes part of your standard process so that your organization comes to you before every funding request to get your insights.
