Executive Summary
Rural Support Programme Network (RSPN), in alignment with Accelerated Action Plan (AAP) of
Government of Sind (GoS), is implementing the EU-funded Programme for Improved Nutrition in Sindh
(PINS) Nutrition Sensitive Interventions (ER-3) in partnership with the National Rural Support
Programme (NRSP), Sindh Rural Support Organization (SRSO) and Thardeep Rural Development
Programme in 10 programme districts of Sindh.
A Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Framework is one of the key deliverables of the RSPN under the
programme to ensure that the programme is delivered efficiently and effectively whereas its outputs,
outcomes and impact are measured and reported in a systematic and timely manner.
The overall aim of this M&E Framework is to ensure that the PINS ER-3 is fully equipped to
systematically generate, capture and disseminate knowledge through developing a unified monitoring
and evaluation system strengthening the overall impact and effectiveness of programme
interventions. Moreover, the purpose of this M&E Framework is to provide guidance and build a
common gender-sensitive approach for the M&E activities of the PINS ER-3.
The framework includes the key matrices of the Detailed Results Matrix (DRM) and Project Monitoring
Matrix (PMM) that build on the overall PINS ER-3 logframe and will be used to elaborate what to
monitor, and how to track performance to aid all relevant stakeholders and implementing partners.
The M&E framework also provides a detailed description of the scope of the evaluation functions, as
well as a detailed section on risk mitigation in order to comprehensively cover all aspects related to
the M&E function of the PINS ER-3.
The PINS ER-3 M&E component also aims to mainstream gender in the development of M&E
Framework and to offer concepts for improving the M&E of outcomes, impacts and reporting related
to gender mainstreaming with specific focus on the women participation and empowerment.
Moreover, RSPN will be implementing some pilot interventions under the programme, therefore
certain assessments have been made part of the M&E activities in order to assess their efficiency,
effectiveness, impact and sustainability. RSPN will engage C4ED as technical partner to conduct these
assessments. C4ED in collaboration with the University of Mannheim has already been assisting RSPN
in M&E (primarily evaluation) in the EU-funded SUCCESS programme.
Additionally, the section pertaining to the operationalisation of the M&E framework provides
guidance on the M&E capacity building activities to be undertaken in order to develop a uniform
understanding of the overall M&E Framework and its usage among concerned staff of all
implementing partners as well as the scope and role of web-based Management Information System
(MIS). RSPN will conduct training sessions on how to monitor the programme activities. This training
will be targeted at M&E staff within its own institution as well as within its implementing partners.
RSPN will seek technical assistance from C4ED in planning of the training sessions and development
of its schedule and material.
Finally, the framework also contains guidelines on the regular analysis of the progress against M&E
framework through M&E resource group meetings and reviews by RSPN and its implementing partner
RSPs i.e. NRSP, SRSO, TRDP and ACF.
Monitoring, and Evaluation Section – RSPN 1

Structure of the M&E Framework

This M&E Framework document is structured into four main chapters, followed by several appendices
that contain detailed tools and matrices which form an integral part of the framework document. The
chapters are titled as follows:
Preliminary: Provides the context for the overall M&E approach and procedures. It provides an
introduction to the PINS ER-3 along with its objectives and expected results. Further, it includes the
purpose of the M&E Framework and its development process, the extent, commencement,
implementation and amendments or revisions of the framework, mainstreaming gender in M&E
Framework and risk management plan along-with its mitigation strategies.
Monitoring and Reporting: Contains procedures specific to the monitoring function for RSPN and
implementing partner RSPs, which include the purpose and scope of monitoring along with the
different monitoring functions and EU reporting guidelines. This includes detailed monitoring matrices
such as the Detailed Results Matrix (DRM) and Programme Monitoring Matrix (PMM), as well as
various tools and formats to be used for reporting by the RSPN and RSPs M&E staff. A detailed
description and breakdown of M&E team duties and quality assurance and control plan are also
provided.
Evaluation: Contains procedures specific to the evaluation function, such as the purpose and scope
of evaluation, details on the evaluation plan which includes a description of the impact evaluation
design contains baseline, midline and end-line surveys, and assessment of pilot initiatives. The roles
and responsibilities for the evaluation function and Evaluation by the EU have also been provided.
Operationalisation and reviews of M&E Framework: The operationalisation of the M&E

framework provides guidance on the M&E capacity building sessions to be undertaken in order to
communicate the usage of the framework to all implementing partners, the scope and role of web-
based Management Information System (MIS) being developed by RSPN in reporting and tracking
activities in real-time throughout the programme timeline. It also includes reviews of the M&E
Framework.
Each chapter is divided into sections, clauses and sub-clauses. The following referencing scheme is
used for these parts:
 Sections: are labelled by Chapter such as 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. Each section contains policies that
relate to a specific subject.
 Clauses: are labelled in numbers in parenthesis such as 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2 etc. The numbering
restarts at 1 within each Section. This type of structuring ensures that section numbers do
not change across the entire manual when a section is added or deleted. Effect of the change
is limited to the relevant section in this manner.
 Sub-clauses: are labelled in lower-case alphabets and in parenthesis such as (a), (d), (f) etc.
The order in sub-clauses also restarts within each clause for the same reason as explained
above.

1. Preliminary
1.1. Introduction
Following the 18th Constitutional Amendment by the Government of Pakistan, the Government of
Sindh (GoS) developed an Inter-Sectoral Nutrition Strategy Sindh (INSS) in 2013, to design and
implement nutrition specific as well as nutrition sensitive interventions in order to address
malnutrition in the province. In alignment with this strategy, the World Bank supported GoS for the
Nutrition Support Programme (NSP) in nine districts of the province. GoS through the Planning and
Development Department (PDD) has also initiated a six year (2016-2021) multi-sectoral Accelerated
Action Plan (AAP) for reduction of stunting and malnutrition in the province. The European Union (EU),
under the EU Commission Action Plan on Nutrition (2014), is also supporting GoS in addressing the
issue of malnutrition. EU’s Women and Infants Nutrition Support (WINS) programme has been
implemented from 2012 to 2017 in three districts, e.g. Thatta (incl. Sujawal), Dadu and Shikarpur. The
EU has approved “Programme for Improvement of Nutrition in Sindh” (PINS) for the ten districts of
Sindh in 2017-18.
The overall PINS programme has three components: Expected Result 1- Technical Assistance,
Expected Result-2 Nutrition Specific Interventions and ER3- Nutrition Sensitive Interventions. RSPN
is implementing the Nutrition Sensitive interventions (Expected Result-3) of the overall PINS
programme in rural areas of 10 districts of Sindh in partnership with its implementing partner RSPs-
National Rural Support Programme (NRSP); Sindh Rural Support Organisation (SRSO); and Thardeep
Rural Development Programme (TRDP) and with the technical support of Action Against Hunger (ACF).
The PINS is built upon the social mobilization approach to community driven development (CDD) of
RSPN and RSPs under the EU supported Sindh Union Council and Community Economic Strengthening
Support Programme (SUCCESS) and GoS supported Union Council Based Poverty Reduction
Programme (UCBPRP). Under SUCCESS and UCBPRP, the RSPN and partner RSPs are in the process of
organising at least 70% of rural households (including coverage of 100% of the poor households on
poverty scorecard range 0-23) into a network of three-tiered community institutions, i.e. Community
Organizations (CO) at sub-settlement level, then federating COs into village level Village Organizations
(VOs), and then federating VOs into union council level Local Support Organisation (LSOs).These LSOs
at district level will form Tehsil and District LSO Networks to interact with government at higher levels
and to encourage member LSOs to interact and exchange information amongst themselves and with
other civil society organisations.
The PINS ER-3 comprises of the following two components:
ER-1: Improved community-level climate resilient WASH infrastructures including behaviour change
in rural areas of Sindh
ER-2: Improved community-level nutrition sensitive food production systems adapted to climate
change in rural areas of Sindh
The cross-cutting themes of the programme are as follows:

 Gender Integration

 Climate Change, Environment and Disaster Risk Reduction

 Rights-based Approach
The Programme will be implemented by RSPN in 194 Union Councils(Annex-10) of 10 districts of
Sindh whereas GoS will cover the half UCs (194) for implementation of AAP interventions in parallel
to the PINS ER-3 in the targeted 10 districts. The intervention districts include; 1) Kambar
Shahdadkot 2) Larkana 3) Dadu 4) Matiari 5) Sujawal 6) Jamshoro 7) Tando Mohammad Khan 8)
Tando Allahyar (SUCCESS Intervention districts), and 1) Shikarpur, 2) Thatta (UCBPRP Intervention
districts). The RSPs wise intervention districts are as following:
NRSP: Matiari, Tando Allahyar, Tando Mohammad Khan, Thatta and Sujawal
SRSO: Kambar Shahdadkot, Larkana and Shikarpur
TRDP: Dadu and Jamshoro

1.4. Mainstreaming Gender in the M&E Framework
Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) recognises mainstreaming Gender as an essential step for
evaluating development toward specific outcomes and for assessing impact.
Gender mainstreaming in to the development processes, delivery of services, implementation of

programme interventions, and specifically reporting will be addressed in ongoing monitoring and in
evaluations. Special focus will be given in evaluating whether an activity is achieving its objectives, we
can consider what has been accomplished and what can be learned and feedback into further efforts
using the gender-lenses. Gender is a cross-cutting issue and theme within the development policies of
most international donors and national governments.
Keeping in view the importance of gender mainstreaming in rural and community-led development
programmes, PINS ER-3 M&E Framework has been designed with specific focus on gender
mainstreaming and development. This M&E team aims to report gender concerns in implementing
rural development programmes. A list of actions is given below for achieving objectives related to
mainstreaming gender into the M&E framework:
 Gender analysis of M&E framework and incorporation of feedback;
 Development of gender sensitive reporting mechanism on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
for the programme;
 Gender-wise bifurcation of the programme KPIs and Monitoring Indicators;
 Development of gender sensitive reporting and monitoring tools;
 Align programme’s result indicators and KPIs with SDGs related to gender mainstreaming; and
 Orientation of M&E personal on RSPN’s key guiding principles including gender
mainstreaming.
1.5. Alignment of PINS (ER-3) Results with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and
Accelerated Action Plan (AAP) of GoS
The RSPN and its implementing partners have prioritized Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in
the PINS ER-3. Keeping in view the strategic importance of the programme, it’s all expected results

are made fully aligned with the respective SDGs. An infographic presentation on alignment EU’s
PINS ER-3 with the SDGs(Annex-9).
Moreover, the expected results of the programme have been also aligned with the overall goal,
specific objectives, expected results and outputs of the Accelerated Action Plan (AAP) for reducing
malnutrition in Sindh. The AAP is a multi-sectoral policy framework that guides interventions of all
concerned sectors of government of Sindh to reduce stunting and malnutrition in the province. As
half of the UCs i.e. 194 of PINS districts will be covered by AAP and concerned departmen ts, thus a
close coordination mechanism will be developed. RSPN will provide the PSC data of
SUCCESS/UCBPRP to the programme Manager [PM] AAP taskforce for designing and targeting
interventions in their target area. Moreover, RSPN will ensure all the progress indicators under PINS
ER-3 are part of the overall AAP Monitoring and evaluation framework, and will report progress
against these indicators on quarterly basis to the PM AAP taskforce.
1.6. Social Accountability for Good Governance and Development Impact
According to the World Bank definition, Social Accountability is the concept that revolves around the
participation of citizens and civil society organizations in public decision-making process (World Bank,
2005). The DFID defines it as ‘The ability of the citizens, civil society and the private sector to scrutinize
public institutions and governments and to hold them to account” (DFID, 2009).
The concept of social accountability is new to Pakistan. It is being introduced by the international
development partners and some local non-governmental institutions to improve the state of public
service delivery in the country. The emergence of independent media in the country has also played
the role of a catalyst in demanding rights from the state (Bhidal 2013). Recently, these pressure
groups have forced the government to pass Right to Information (RTI) act, which gives communities
and individuals an access to information and transparent mechanisms at national, provincial and
district levels.
Affiliated Network for Social Accountability (ANSA) provides a compact framework for social
accountability. The four pillars to social accountability are:

Organized &
Capable Public
Groups
Sensitivity
to Responsible
Culture & Government

Information
In order to achieve the smooth and well-functioning demand side mechanisms and functions, civic
engagement is of high importance. The PINS ER-3 aims to empower citizens and communities and
provide them with means to influence and implement community-driven socio-economic
development, with an increased voice and capacity to influence public policy decision making through
active engagement with local authorities. Simultaneously, the programme aims to foster an enabling
environment to strengthen the capacity of local authorities and to involve the communities in
statutory processes which includes local public-sector planning, financing and implementation of
public sector services. By strengthening both the communities and local authorities, the programme
aims to build upon this nexus and promote inclusive, equitable and quality service delivery with civic
oversight in the province of Sindh.
Different social accountability tools used all around the world include (Khadka & Bhattarai 2012):
citizens charter, checklist of entitlements, participatory budgeting, budget tracking, Right to
Information (RTI), awareness of relevant laws, civic education, community score card (CSC), citizens
report card (CRC), participatory planning, citizen satisfaction surveys and community led
procurements. The programme’s intervention logic and its overall design for implementation
addresses the use of almost all aforementioned social accountability tools and techniques.
To ensure social accountability for good governance in Sindh province, RSPN PINS ER-3 has been
designed with special focus on social accountability to enable rural communities track the
implementation of development projects and programmes in targeted districts by the public local
authorities. For this purpose, RSPN will include certain mechanisms in order to align programme

implementation strategies and guidelines with the social accountability methodologies and tools for
the implementing RSPs.
The following steps will be undertaken to ensure social accountability being mainstreamed in
implementation of interventions;
 Strengthening the Community Institutions (Cos, VOs, LSOs, and LSO Networks) under SUCCESS
and UCBPRP programmes;
 Informing and sensitizing Community Institutions (COs, VOs, LSOs, and LSO Networks) on
nutrition related issues under PINS ER-3;
 At grass root level, the Community Institutions will be engaged in programme interventions
for:
1) Planning of the programme activities at community level i.e. setting timeline; roles and
responsibilities of CIs and concerned individuals/beneficiaries incorporating the cultural
sensitivities and local context; and Identification of resource person/beneficiaries, inputs
and available resources etc.;
2) Implementation of planned programme activities at the community level i.e. ensuring
standardization of interventions, avoidance of beneficiary duplication/resources; tracking
progress of community level activities through monthly progress review meetings; and
development of linkages with concerned stakeholders;
3) Monitoring of the programme activities at community level i.e. validating the
beneficiaries, verifying progress reported by resource persons/beneficiaries, overseeing
the procurement process and ongoing field activities at the community level;
4) Participation and reporting at different forums for wider accountability i.e. participation
in meetings of Joint Development Committees(JDC) and District Coordination
Committee(DCC) at district level etc.;
5) Provision of feedback/sharing of grievance with RSPs i.e. the RSPs will provide key contact
numbers to community institutions for their feedback on services and inputs being
provided under the programme; and
6) Creating Charter of Demand (CoDs) for protection of their rights and delivery of public
services from the government holding it accountable.
 At RSP level, the following step will be undertaken;
1) Participation of the RSPs in meetings of CIs i.e. the concerned RSP officials will update the
CIs on implementation of the programme activities and receive their feedback on the
status and quality of the activities completed against set criteria.
2) Participation in the meetings by concerned departments and stakeholders to share the
programme progress and the key areas of cooperation with the department as well as CIs
for effective and efficient delivery of public services to the community.
 Sensitizing and engaging media persons at district, provincial level and national level i.e. the
capacity building/orientation of media persons around programme interventions, targets and
area in order to document and highlight nutrition related issues, interventions and challenges,
and promote accountability for service providers (Administrative and elected officials of
government, RSP) and recipients (Target communities);
 Engagement of stakeholders (Service providers and recipient) through notified committees
(JDCs and DCC) for joint review and planning of the programme activities holding service

providers including government and RSPs accountable for delivery of services to the organized
community institutions; and
 Engagement of concerned stakeholders and government departments in designing of the
programme interventions.
1.7. Risk Mitigation and Management Plan
A risk management plan, which builds upon the assumptions and necessary conditions required for
the programme to continue, is provided below in tabular form. A detailed risk register ( Annex-7). The
risk register will be managed by the programme implementation team with the support of the M&E
staff of RSPN and implementing partner RSPs.
The status against risk management plan and risk register will be updated and reviewed monthly.

activities. All types of infrastructures under proposed Action will
be developed building resilience to shocks and disasters. DRR
guidelines will be followed. Capacity building elements will
include topics like DRR, resilience and climate change adaption.
In addition, the communities through the awareness
programme will also be provided brief information to apply the
principles of DRR so that programme activities do not face any
adverse effects. LSOs will develop their local early warning
systems and will be linked with local authorities to respond to
any emergency situation.

3 Security situation becomes RSPN and RSPs will have constantly assess the security situation
unstable in the programme areas and will develop their monthly implementation plans
accordingly. RSPs are well-known at the field level, with
excellent relations with local authorities and communities.
Where possible, the RSPs will use their local relations and
connections to be fully informed about any security issues.
4 Lack of interest and capacity of Intensive sensitisation on the magnitude and consequences of
local communities to participate in malnutrition on individual, household and community well-being
such programmes will be part of the community mobilisation. This will contribute to
increased awareness and interest. The programme interventions
will be implemented in the field with the community institutions
fostered under the SUCCESS and UCBPRP programmes by RSPs.
In this regard, also community institutions will be given
orientation about the interventions and how these will be
contributing to reduce stunting and malnutrition. In addition,
community level activists will be trained for constant
engagement with communities under different activities of the
programme.
5 Unavailability of qualified staff and RSPs will use their existing experienced core staff for highly
their high turnover rates technical work, such as finalizing the roll out, staff capacity
building, finalizing the M&E systems, development of
computerized database and ensuring the standardization of
methodologies and processes. For staff to be hired, various
measures including placement of advertisement on RSPN/RSP
websites and in national newspaper will be made. Also, contacts
with other development organizations will be made to attract
people with appropriate qualification, experience and skills.
RSPN/RSPs will offer excellent working environment for staff to
reduce chances of turnover.
6 Political influence for provision of The full and transparent involvement of community institutions
programme inputs like water mitigates against political influence. Community-led planning,
supply schemes, seeds, goats, e.g. preparation of Village Action Plans, not only fosters
poultry birds and participation in transparency but also creates local ownership. The use of
training events. poverty score data of from the SUCCESS and UCBPRP
programmes will allow be used to identify and support poor
households (0-23 PSC) for the provision of programme related
inputs.
7 Delay in procurement Procurement plans will be prepared, and procurement process

will be initiated in timely manner within the procurement rules
and procedures of RSPN/RSPs. Compliance with EU rules and

Risk

regulations will also be ensured. Procurement process will be

monitored to ensure timeliness.
1.8. M&E Framework Development Process
The development of the M&E framework of the programme started with a thorough review of the
programme documents (action document, agreement between EU and Government of Pakistan, RSPN
proposal, budget, and logframe), RSPN M&E manual and other available material. The M&E Specialist
and the M&E Coordinator of the RSPN-PINR-ER3 developed initial draft of the M&E Framework along
with Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the programme. The first draft was shared with the entire
programme staff including key staff of partner RSPs to acquire and incorporate their inputs and
feedback during a meeting held on 16th August, 2018. The document was also presented to the
international entity engaged for the M&E support with an aim to build better understanding of the
programme lead to development of a rigorous impact evaluation design for the PINS ER-3 component.
1.9. Extent and Commencement
The policies and procedures covered by this manual apply only to the PINS ER-3 programme funded
by the EU and implemented by RSPN in partnership with implementing partner RSPs (NRSP, SRSO, and
TRDP) and technical assistance of ACF in 10 targeted districts of Sindh.
 If any of the provisions of this M&E framework are found to be inapplicable under the grant
agreement/conditions of the EU Pakistan, the remainder shall apply to the extent possible.
 The policies and procedures covered by this M&E framework shall come into force from the
date of final endorsement by the RSPN senior management.
1.10. Implementation and Revisions
The main responsibility of implementing the M&E framework rests with RSPN. The Specialist M&E at
RSPN head office and M&E Coordinator of respective PINS ER-3 at PMU Karachi shall be the custodians
of this common gender sensitive M&E framework, who shall ensure that this document remains up-
to-date and that any revisions are duly communicated to all concerned parties in a timely manner.
The M&E framework remains a living document, subsequent to the initial approval; revisions can be
made to it according to the needs of field implementation. Revisions may be proposed by any staff
member of RSPN’s PINS ER-3 and implementing partner RSPs including ACF through their head of M&E
preferably in writing to the Coordinator M&E at PINS PMU, Karachi. The Specialist M&E provide
guidance and technical assistance to the M&E Coordinator PINS ER-3 will review the implication of the
suggested revisions and communicate the decision and amendments (if any) to all stakeholders,
including the EU.

2. Monitoring & Reporting

Monitoring is a continuing function that uses systematic collection of data on specified indicators to
provide management and the main stakeholders of an ongoing development intervention with
indications of the extent of progress and achievement of objectives and progress in the use of
allocated funds.
2.1. Purpose of Monitoring
To regularly assess the extent of progress, relevance of activities, appropriateness of risk mitigation
measures, process efficiency, quality and completeness of immediate outputs, and beneficiary
selection and participation. Monitoring should result in validation of progress, risk mitigation, scope
management, project course correction, quality assurance, timeliness and better coordination
2.2. Scope of Monitoring
Based on the principle of impartiality, all projects shall be monitored internally by RSPN.
The Monitoring will focus on;
 human resource and technical inputs, activities, processes, and immediate outputs;
 primarily on relevance, targeting or beneficiary selection and efficiency rather than
effectiveness, sustainability and impact; and
 certain activities of the project may be emphasized more than others depending on their
significance to RSPN, the donor, or the final beneficiaries.
2.3. Monitoring Functions
Monitoring: Assessment and verification of delivery, performance and process improvement at the
PINS ER-3
(a) Monitoring of the programme includes the following functions;
 Maintaining the results framework and performance indicators.

 Ensuring that project implementation remains consistent with its logic model.
 Observing the project environment and reporting on any changes that may significantly affect
the project.
 Objectively assessing, verifying and reporting on the state of progress claimed by the
implementation team based on verifiable evidence.
 Verifying whether the required levels of human and technical inputs are applied to project
activities.
 Assessing whether project activities remain relevant to the agreed goals and objectives of the
project.
 Ensuring that necessary course correction measures are undertaken in case the project
deviates from its scope.
 Assessing the level of efficiency in project delivery including cost and process efficiency.
 Tracking project risks and ensuring that necessary mitigation measures are put in place in a
timely manner by the implementation team.

 Ensuring that project documentation remains in order.

 Ensuring that the management remains appraised of any critical issues concerning the project.
Follow-up of key decisions taken relating to issues that are highlighted during monitoring.
 Verifying that the right beneficiaries are selected and that the project implementation team
is ensuring their participation in the project.
 Designing or overseeing the design of beneficiary assessment surveys for selection purposes
as when required.
 Training project implementation teams in qualitative and quantitative data collection as and
when required. Providing technical support and guidance in quality assurance, standardization
and analysis of data collected.
 Objectively assessing the quality and completeness of immediate project outputs.
 Documenting lessons learnt from project monitoring process, disseminating them between
key stakeholders and ensuring that important lessons are incorporated into future project
designs.
 Monitoring of financial inputs and internal control (by the Internal Auditor)
 Verification of contractual compliance (by the Manager Compliance)
(b) Responsibility for programme monitoring shall be shared between the following officials according
to their job descriptions:
 M&E Specialist (Head of M&E section based at Head Office of RSPN in Islamabad
 Coordinator M&E of PINS ER-3 alongwith M&E Officers (based at Programme Management
Unit (PMU), Karachi
 M&E Managers and Monitoring Assistants (based at the regional PIUs of implementing
partner RSPs) and Internal Auditor(s) (for financial monitoring and internal control only)
2.4. Main Elements of the Monitoring Function
(a) Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

 For reporting on programme performance, a set of common Key Performance Indicators
(KPIs) are developed for the overall PINS ER-3. RSPN will collect data on the KPIs quarterly
and produce annual reports consolidating these KPIs. These KPIs will provide a picture of the
overall PINS ER-3 programme on a standardised format (Annex- 2).
 A web-based MIS supported with mapping of KPIs will be developed to track and report on
KPIs. In the MIS, the KPIs will be mapped on different geographic layers e.g. province, districts,
tehsils, and union councils to show the overall geographic picture of the programme
interventions.
(b) Programme Monitoring Plan (PMP)

The PMP provides details on how the programme will be monitored. The PMP is to be based on the
approved PINS ER-3 Logframe (Annex-1) and grant agreement between EU and RSPN include the
following sections:
 Detailed Result Matrix (DRM): The Detailed Result Matrix (DRM) is built upon the PINS ER-3
Logframe by adding process and inputs indicators at the activity level (Annex-3). In essence,

the DRM focuses on what to monitor in the overall programme result chain starting from input
to impact.
 Project Monitoring Matrix (PMM): The PMM is built upon the DRM and provides a more
detailed depiction of how, when and where to undertake monitoring, including who should
be responsible for implementing and monitoring the activities. It provides details on the
target/criteria of each indicator, the timeline/frequency with which the indicators are to be
monitored. The PMM will be reviewed bi-annually by the RSPN/RSPs’ Management. PMM is
given at Annex-4.
(c) Management Information System

To ensure standardization in reporting and proper monitoring of the PINS ER-3 interventions, a
comprehensive integrated computerized application software will be developed by RSPN. The RSPN is
already using a MIS/GIS system for SUCCESS programme. As the PINS ER-3 is built upon SUCCESS and
UCBPRP programmes, its MIS will also be primarily linked with the database of the MIS systems being
used in these two programmes enabling the system to avoid duplication in selection of beneficiaries
and track progress of the all the programmes in real-time at the household level. This strategic
arrangement with SUCCESS and UCBPRP programmes MIS and its database will allow the programme
to have information about each household and individual within the household, along with a unique
Identification Number (ID).
The poverty scorecard information will be linked with all other modules of the integrated MIS/GIS, so
that the RSPs are able to track information about coverage, inclusion, and targeting of poor
households for the implementation of gender sensitive socio-economic interventions at the ground
level. Additionally, this will also allow us to monitor how many households in which poverty band are
participating in multiple interventions and evaluate the overall progress over the time and
geographical spread. Also, efforts will be made to align the PINS ER-3 results indicators with relevant
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and indicators of AAP, GoS in the integrated PINS’s MIS.
(d) Team Structure and Duties

To keep some independence from the programme implementation team, the M&E Assistants at PIU
level will directly report to their respective Manager or Head of M&E of each implementing partner
RSPs whereas the M&E Officers of PINS ER-3 PMU will report to M&E Coordinator of PINS ER-3 who
will directly report to the Specialist M&E at RSPN Head office.
The proposed organizational structure for M&E is given at Figure 1.

2.5. Capacity Building of M&E Staff
RSPN will organise training of RSPN and RSPs M&E staff on M&E Framework which includes M&E
methods, tools and reporting during the on-ground implementation of the PINS Programme (ER-3).
Moreover, once the PINS programmer’s impact evaluation design is finalized, the RSPN’s M&E team
and dedicated monitoring staff of RSPs on the impact evaluation design i.e. baseline, midline and end-
line survey approaches and methodologies will be trained with support of an international firm is
engaged for providing technical assistance to RSPN on M&E and research components. The purpose
of this training is that the RSPN and RSPs’ PINS Programme teams trained on the impact evaluation
design will be technically sound to facilitate the specialized consultant firm to be engaged for
undertaking data collection for the programme’s impact evaluation. As one-time training on M&E will
not be sufficient, in this regards on annual basis refresher training sessions for M&E staff of the
programme will be organised at Karachi. In addition, programme M&E staff will also be facilitated to
attend need-based trainings on M&E to be announced by the specialized training institutions in
Pakistan during the implementation phase of the programme.
2.6. Financial Monitoring
This includes assessment of internal controls with associated risks and compliance to donor
agreements which will be done through the internal and external audits. Monitoring of financial
progress against approved budget will be an on-going activity through each of the RSPs existing
Financial Information Management System (FIMS). The finance section staff based at all levels (Head
Office, PMU/PIU, Region and District) will regularly review and monitor all the critical reconciliations
(cash flow, bank, regional and head office, etc.).
2.7. Supervision and Progress Reporting Functions
The monitoring functions such as progress reporting and supervision of the technical aspects of the
programme will be done by the programme implementation team. This will include the following:
 The District Programme Officers (DPOs) will monitor their respective staff work plans and regularly
report to the Programme Manager PINS ER-3 based at the PIU of each implementing RSP. The PM
will then be responsible for reporting progress to the Programme Director. The Programme
Director of PINS ER-3 will be responsible for reporting progress to senior management of RSPN
and EU and AAP Secretariat on the prescribed formats and frequency agreed in the grant
agreement. In addition to this, the PM will ensure the timely implementation of the programme
interventions with the support of the implementation team at RSPs level whereas the Programme
Director will ensure implementation of the activities of the overall PINS ER-3.
 DPOs will observe the activities of the district staff i.e. CNOs, Field Engineers, Agriculture and Food
Security Officers, MIS Assistants and other supporting staff. The CNOs in turn will be monitoring
the work of Community Resource Persons (CRPs) against their work plans on day to day basis.

 The technical staff, for example engineers will be responsible to monitor the planning, process,
progress and quality of the engineering work on the community infrastructure schemes/projects.
Similarly, other technical staff for their respective component will be responsible for day to day
monitoring of quality and process of their sectoral activities.
The cascading of reporting and supervision is as follows:

2.10. Reporting
At the programme level, the following reporting requirements will be fulfilled according to the
timelines and frequency stipulated in the PMP:
(a) Programme Monitoring Report (PMR)

This PMR will be made by the M&E team of PINS ER-3 based at PMU level every month on a prescribed
format attached at Annex-5. The PMR will be based on the monitoring indicators mentioned in
Programme Monitoring Matrix (Annex-4) and gather monitoring information through field visits to
the programme sites and review of programme records available at PMU and PIUs, District Offices,
Field Offices and at the Community Institutions level. Observations noted during field visits will be
shared with the relevant filed staff for course correction during the field monitoring visit. PMR will be
submitted to M&E Coordinator at RSPN PMU, Karachi. The M&E Coordinator will consolidate the
findings, recommendations and lessons learnt mentioned in the PMR and share it with Programme
Director to take corrective measures, if any. The M&E Coordinator will submit a consolidated PMR to
M&E Specialist, RSPN Islamabad. The M&E Coordinator will also share its copy with M&E Managers of
implementing partner RSPs for regular follow up on the recommendations and agreed actions. The
M&E Specialist will report key findings of M&E related to the programme to the senior management
of RSPN and implementing partners RSPs according to the M&E manual of RSPN.
(b) Ad-hoc Reporting

In addition to the PMR, programme implementation team members with monitoring responsibility of
their activities are also expected to monitor the field activities on a daily basis. When it is deemed
necessary, the feedback on important aspects of the programme would be given through emails and
Note for Record (NFR). The progress and any challenges in the field will also be communicated to RSPN
and implementing partner RSPs’ management by the programme technical team, core staff or
monitoring officer in programme review meeting on weekly/monthly/quarterly basis.

(c) Field Monitoring Reports

The focus of field monitoring should be on beneficiary selection, their participation in the
programme activities, verification and feedback of benefits received by them. Monitoring that takes
place at the field level should conclude in concise reports according to the type of monitoring activity.
The report structure should be defined by the Monitoring Officer/Assistant in consultation with the
Coordinator/Manager M&E. Such reports shall include pictorial evidences wherever applicable. A
sample template is given at Annex-8. These reports shall be produced after monitoring activities such
as:
 Direct observations of trainings, community mobilisation activities, construction activities,
or other activities described in the programme document and rollout plans.
 Focus Group Discussions (FDGs) and Community Group Interviews with programme
beneficiaries.
 Interviews and meetings with programme implementation teams or beneficiaries.
 Mini-surveys to document feedback of programme participants on various activities.
(d) Monitoring Action Plan (MAP)

All types of monitoring activities and reports will usually result in identification of certain action items.
These action items will be in the form of specific and practical recommendations for improvement or
correction. The Monitoring Officers at PMU will prepare a monitoring action plan on monthly basis
and regularly update the MAP based on the actions taken by the programme implementation team.
The Monitoring Officers will submit the MAP to the Coordinator M&E so that s/he could ensure that
all the action items and their current status are properly mentioned. MAP format is attached at Annex-
6.
2.11. EU Reporting Requirements
As per EU reporting requirements, RSPN PINS ER-3 PMU has to ensure EU reporting requirements and
guidelines in all of its reports. EU reporting requirements are given below:
(a) During the Course of the Programme

To be submitted:
 The deliverables identified and mentioned in the Grant Agreement, according to the timetable
specified in the deliverables list; and
 An Interim Narrative Report (Annex 11) within 60 days from the end of each reporting year
(including the last reporting period). The report shall comprise:
- An overview, including a publishable summary, of the progress of work towards the
objectives of the project, including achievements and attainment of any milestones and
deliverables identified in Annex-1. This report should include the differences between
work expected to be carried out in accordance with Annex-1 and that actually carried out,
- an explanation of the use of the resources, and
- a financial statement, together with a summary financial report consolidating the claimed
contribution of [the Union] [Euratom] of all the beneficiaries in an aggregate form, based
on the information provided in Form as annexure to the Grant Agreement with RSPN.

Financial statements should be accompanied by certificates, when this is appropriate (see

relevant Article of the Grant Agreement signed between RSPN and the EU).
(b) At the End of the project

In addition to the interim report for the last period of the programme, a final report (Annex 12) has
to be submitted, within 90 days after the end of the project.
This final report shall comprise:
a) A final publishable summary report which includes: an executive summary, a summary

description of project context and objectives, the potential impact (including the socio-
economic impact of the project) and the main dissemination activities and exploitation of
results/foregrounds.
b) A plan for the use and dissemination of foreground, to spread awareness.
c) A report covering the wider societal implications of the project, in the form of a questionnaire,
including gender equality actions, ethical issues, efforts to involve other actors.
2.12. Quality Assurance and Control Plan:
The programme implementation quality will be ensured through capacity building staff of
implementing partner RSPs on the programme design, implementation, monitoring, evaluation and
reporting, and quality controls plans and checklists to be developed at the PINS ER-3 inception phase.
During the implementation of the programme, the RSPN technical staff and programme staff will
provide regular backstopping through regular follow-up visits to the programme districts. Based on
PIM, RSPN will develop a quality assurance and control plan and tools. Quality assurance and control
plan will identify the requirements/standards for the programme implementation and deliverables.
The purpose of the Quality Assurance and Control Plan (QACP) is to ensure that programme activities
are completed as per set standards. Quality Assurance involves a set of activities to ensure quality in
the processes through which the programme interventions are delivered whereas Quality Control
involves a system of maintaining standards in the programme interventions delivered by assessing a
sample of the activities against the set standards. The former focuses on prevention of defects in the
implementation of the interventions whereas the later focuses on identification of the defects in the
programme interventions completed.
Quality implies setting acceptable standards for completion of programme activities and deliverables,
ensuring that there has been adherence to the processes outlined in the Programme Implementation
Manual (PIM) in implementing them as well as they are delivered as per set standards.
The plan and tools will be used by the PINS ER-3 staff of RSPN and implementing partner RSPs during
programme implementation and quality control spot check visits. As part of the QACP, the tools will
include:

(a) Quality Control Indicator Matrix
This matrix will contain a breakup of key quality assurance and control indicators, derived from the
PIM, which would guide developing the checklists and formats.
(b) Checklists
Based on the Quality Assurance and Control Indicators Matrix and PIM, checklists will be developed
which can be used in programme implementation by the staff that is responsible for a particular task
ranging from the RSPN head office to the SMT level along-with the leaders of the Community
Institutions, where applicable. The checklists will be developed in a manner to cater to the
implementer of a particular activity, to not only ensure that it is completed according to all processes
defined in the PIM, but also to serve as a guide in planning, implementation and completion for each
key activity. They will also be used by staff during spot-check visits.
(c) Spot-Check Field Visits
Field visits will be conducted by RSPN PINS ER-3 PMU and PIU teams to assess whether quality as per
set standards is being maintained in the field for implementation of various programme activities. The
checklists will be used to documents key observations and findings during the spot-check field visits,
and/or a Note for Record (NFR) will be circulated to all relevant programme staff for promoting quality
improvements.
(d) Community Feedback Mechanism

As part of the social accountability, a feedback tool will be developed and implemented to receive the
communities’ feedback. The tool will help to assess the level of community engagement and
ownership, as well as sustainability of the programme intervention. The feedback will be compiled
and shared with all concerned officials to ensure accountability and quality of the programme.
(e) Capacity Building of Staff and Community Institutions
Capacity building of staff and community institutions is an integral part of ensuring quality and for
continues improvement in the programme.
3. Evaluation
Evaluation is the systematic and objective assessment of an on-going or completed project or
programme, its design, implementation and results. The aim is to determine the relevance and
fulfilment of objectives, development efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability.
Evaluation also refers to the process of determining the worth or significance of an activity, policy or
program. An assessment, as systematic and objective as possible, of a planned, on-going, or completed
development intervention.
3.1. Purpose of Evaluation

The purpose of evaluation under PINS ER-3 will be (a) learning for improvement in the on-going
programme or design of a future programme, and (b) accountability of those results that are
committed to the donor or other key stakeholders.
3.2. Scope of Evaluation
The scope of the evaluation under PINS ER-3 is based on the outcome level indicators of the overall
PINS ER-3 Logframe (Annex-1). That includes measuring the following key indicators:
 Percentage increase of expenditure dedicated to a minimum of four food groups (outside

staples) by target households
 Percentage of women, age 15-49 years from targeted population, who consume at least 5
out of 10 defined food groups of Minimum Dietary Diversity-W
 Percentage of children (age 6-23 months) that consume a minimum acceptable diet
 Percentage decrease in incidence of diarrhoea in U-5 children in programme target areas
Percentage of target population using safely managed drinking water sources
 Percentage of programme-targeted population who use an appropriate water treatment
method
 Percentage of programme target of population using an improved sanitation facility
 Percentage of program target households with a specific place for hand washing with water
and soap
 Percentage of mothers/care-givers in targeted villages who practice hand washing before
feeding children
 Number and type of innovative approaches on water designed, tested and adopted in
programme districts
 Number of staff from concerned local authorities and CRPs with acquired skills involved in
implementation of WASH intervention in programme target districts
 Number of Villages with at least one integrated farmer field school and/or community-
managed demonstration sites for poultry, livestock or aquaculture
 Number of target households (0-23 on PSC) who have established kitchen garden in
programme villages
 Proportion of targeted small farmers (disaggregated data by gender) implementing new
agriculture techniques adapted to climate change
 Number and type of climate resilient measures for mitigating floods and drought impacts at
local level
 Number and type of innovative approaches on agriculture and food security designed, tested
and adopted in targeted districts
 Number of staff from concerned local authorities and communities with acquired skills
involved in implementation of nutrition sensitive agriculture initiatives in program target
districts
3.3. Evaluation Plan

A consultative approach will be adopted with the aim of developing PINS’s impact evaluation design
that is based on shared expectations and joint ownership. The process will start with a desk review
of the existing impact evaluation designs by RSPN, assessments and evaluations undertaken in EU-
funded WINS programme, review of PINS Programme documents including the programme’s
logframe, and the Action document of PINS signed between EU and Government of Pakistan and
provincial government as well. This will be followed by consultative meetings with the senior M&E
staff members of PINS technical and implementing partners and the EU.
The RSPN M&E team will prepare the final document that includes an impact evaluation approach,
detailed methodology, sampling framework, data collection instruments and Terms of Reference for
the third-party service provider to be hired by RSPN to conduct the impact evaluation surveys, i.e.
baseline, midline and end-line surveys. While developing these documents technical input from
technical partner to be engaged on M&E and research component will be incorporated. RSPN will
thereafter outsource to the third-party service providers to undertake the impact evaluation surveys
at the start, mid and end line evaluation phases, accordingly.
The baseline, midline and end-line impact evaluation surveys are part of the overall accountability
and learning purpose of the M&E component of the PINS Programme and will measure and report
on results, outcomes and impact indicators of the PINS Programme’s logframe. While developing the
impact evaluation survey methodologies and reports, particular attention will be paid on collecting
and reporting on gender disaggregated data (e.g. women, men, children, disabled, old, poverty
bands, etc.). The technical partner will assist the RSPN in hiring consulting firms for the impact
evaluation surveys, oversight the training sessions of data collection teams, do random monitoring
during the survey through weekly data sharing, review draft reports and other deliverables shared
by the consultant firm for quality check and support in the finalisation and dissemination of the
reports.
Under the RSPN component a number of the quantitative and qualitative assessments will also be
conducted to gauge the pilot testing of some intervention activities. RSPN will engage an experienced
international entity i.e. UM/C4ED to provide guidance and assistance to M&E within the programme
to strengthen its overall impact and effectiveness. The assignment will comprise four work packages
i.e. Development and Implementation of M&E framework, Development and Implementation of
Impact Evaluation Design, Support in Third-Party Data Collection, and Support in Training of M&E staff.
C4ED will report to the Specialist M&E (technical reports) and the Programme Director PINS at the
PMU (administrative report).
In addition to these internal evaluations and assessments by the RSPN, EU will undertake and finance
an external mid-term review and a final evaluation. In such case, the Terms of Reference (ToRs) for
both evaluations will have the final approval of EU. However, while preparing and finalizing the ToRs,
it is proposed that the draft ToRs be shared with the implementing partners (RSPN and RSPs along
with ACF) for feedback. These evaluations should ideally include all criteria of evaluation such as
relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability, partner performance, innovation, gender,
targeting, partnerships, etc.
3.4. EU External Evaluations

The Results Oriented Monitoring (ROM) is the external monitoring system of the European
Commission. It aims at enhancing the European Commission's (EC) accountability and management
capacities with a strong focus on results, and supports EU Delegation and Headquarter services by
providing an external opinion on project implementation.
EU-funded projects are assessed by external experts according to four DAC criteria:
 Relevance is the extent to which the objectives of a development intervention are

consistent with beneficiaries’ requirements, country needs, global priorities and partners’
and donors’ policies.
 Efficiency is the measure of how economically resources/inputs (funds, expertise, time, etc.)
are converted into outputs.
 Effectiveness is the extent to which the development intervention’s objectives were
achieved, or are expected to be achieved, taking into account their relative importance.
 Sustainability is the continuation of benefits from a development intervention after major
development assistance has been completed.
The EU will organise Result Oriented Monitoring (ROM) missions every year.
RSPN is in charge of managing EU-funded grant component of the programme

The EU Operational Manager will inform the RSPN ahead of each planned ROM mission, so that they
can prepare and facilitate the work of the ROM experts.
RSPN and implementing partner RSPs will have the following responsibilities:
 Identify with the ROM expert the target groups and beneficiaries to be met,
 Provide the ROM expert with all available project documentation: inception and
implementation reports, outputs (technical reports), financial data to assess the adequacy
of costs and expenses vis-à-vis the expected results,
 Attend the briefing and debriefing at the beginning and at the end of the field visit,
 Provide comments on the draft ROM report to correct potential factual errors within 21
days,
 Include the accepted recommendations in a follow-up plan to be applied in the project
implementation and reported on to the OM in the progress reports.
The benefits for RSPN and the implementing partner include:
 Identification of issues in the design (particularly logframe, result indicators and baseline),
efficiency, effectiveness and sustainability of their project,
 Recommendations to solve these issues and improve the project implementation in terms
of outputs and outcomes,
 Reinforcement of the collaboration with the Operational Manager in charge of managing
the project at the EU Delegation / Headquarters.
3.5. Roles and Responsibilities for Evaluation
(a) The M&E Coordinator based at PINS ER-3 PMU shall serve as the focal person for all internal and
external evaluations. The Specialist M&E at RSPN head office will provide the overall technical support
to M&E Coordinator.

(b) The Programme Director PINS ER-3 and Coordinator M&E based at PMU with the support of PIUs
and District Implementation Units of implementing partner RSPs shall extend necessary support to the
evaluation team in terms of access to information, access to programme staff, access to programme
participants or beneficiaries, logistics, providing feedback on technical matters to the evaluator(s)
when required, arranging required meetings with the donor(s) and any other parties as required by
the ToRs of the evaluation. If logistical and field security support cannot be provided, it should be
clearly stated in the evaluation TORs.
(c) International entity will provide technical assistance to RSPN in preparing the detailed impact
evaluation design that will include approach and methodologies for the baselines, midline, and end-
line surveys planed under this M&E framework
(d) If the M&E and implementation teams of RSPN and implementing partner RSPs do find factual
errors or omissions in the evaluation reports, they shall provide the necessary evidence and
information to the evaluator(s) for correction.
(e) If there is disagreement on certain findings of the evaluation, the evaluation report shall state
views of the evaluators as well as RSPN and implementing partner RSPs.
4. Operationalisation of M&E Framework

Operationalisation of the M&E framework provides guidance on the M&E capacity building sessions
to be undertaken in order to communicate the usage of the framework to all implementing partners,
the scope and role of web-based Management Information System (MIS) being developed by RSPN in
reporting and tracking activities in real-time throughout the programme timeline. It also includes
reviews of the M&E Framework.
4.1 Capacity Building of M&E Staff on M&E Framework and Impact Evaluation Design
Under PINS ER-3, RSPN along-with technical assistance from international M&E firm, where possible
has been mandated to train M&E Staff of RSPN and implementing RSPs on the programmes’ M&E
Framework and Evaluation Approaches and Methodologies. Following trainings will be conducted by
RSPN M&E Section for the M&E Staff of RSPN and implementing partners RSPs.
(a) Training of the M&E staff of RSPN and implementing partner RSPs on M&E framework and KPI
reporting tools:
A 2-day M&E training will be organised for the M&E staff of RSPN and implementing partner RSPs on
M&E framework and KPI reporting tools.
(b) Training of the M&E staff on Evaluation approaches & methodologies and PINS (ER-3) Impact
Evaluation Design:
Once the PINS ER-3 impact evaluation design is finalised, the M&E staff of RSPN will be trained on the
approaches and methodologies of evaluation activities of the programme.
4.2. Scope and Role of web-based Management Information System (MIS)

Under PINS ER-3, RSPN will develop and implement a web-based real time reporting MIS system and
dashboard to track KPIs. Based on the MIS of SUCCESS and UCBPRP programmes, RSPN will develop a
customized MIS for the programme with an online web based MIS-Dashboard and report on the final
KPIs of the Programme. This will help highlight and track progress on the KPIs. The KPIs will be mapped
on different geographic layers e.g. province, districts, tehsils and union councils to show the overall
geographic picture of the programme interventions.
4.3. Review of PINS ER-3 M&E Framework
The M&E framework will be reviewed by the existing all RSP Monitoring and Evaluation Resource Group
(MERG). MERG comprises of the head of M&E section of each RSP and led by M&E Specialist of RSPN.
One of the main purposes of MERG is to promote standardisation of M&E approaches and practices
among the RSPs. This meeting shall be called on request and attended by the CEOs, M&E Section Heads
and PINS ER-3 Programme Managers of RSPN and its implementing partner RSPs. Minutes for these
meetings shall be maintained and circulated to relevant officials. Additionally, RSPN will organize RSPs
Strategic Support Group meetings (M&ERG) for lessons learnt and standardization of M&E activities.
