Best RBM practices

• A clearly defined Logframe, with targets• A results-oriented AWPB• An M&E system that informs Project

stakeholders on performance and issues• A Project Management that learns from M&E

data to take corrective actions• A Project Management that is responsive to

changes in the environment• A project that documents, and shares, lessons

learned and best practices (KM)

How?

Through regular data collection, and analysis, based on pre-determined indicators:

Project records (activities) Service providers records Communities/beneficiaries records Field visits/observations Surveys Interviews Focus groups discussions

What to avoid: data collected but not used!

Quantitative data versus qualitative data

Quantity:

• 13,500 active borrowers (40% women)

Quality: “My husband wanted a new car, so I asked the MFI

Officer. He told me that if I formed a group, I could access credit. So I asked all my friends and relatives to join me in a group, after which I got a loan from the MFI and my husband bought his car…”
