Background
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are effectively monitored, evaluated and aligned with local and national development goals. The integration of an interactive monitoring and evaluation dashboard is essential to improve real-time data tracking, reporting and decision-making, establishing a clear link between policy objectives, activities and measurable results.
How can you tell the difference? Zamfara State is seeking to institutionalize a robust monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system as a critical driver of evidence-based decision-making and sustainable development. To achieve this, the state government, in collaboration with UNICEF, is embarking on the development of a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) policy that aligns with and supports the national M&E policy. In addition to this policy, the state intends to develop an interactive dashboard policy for real-time monitoring and data usage, as well as a comprehensive M&E framework to support effective monitoring of the State Development Plan (SDP). These terms of reference (TOR) provide details on the recruitment of an expert consultant to lead the development of the M&E policy, the SDP M&E framework and the related deliverables.
5. Draft an M&E framework for the State Development Plan, including key performance indicators (KPIs) and data collection methodologies.
6. Design an interactive M&E dashboard for tracking SDP implementation and other key development indicators.
7. Support the pilot testing, training and mentoring on the use and features of the dashboard.
8. Facilitate validation workshops for the draft policy, framework, and dashboard.
9. Develop a roadmap for implementing the policy and framework, including training along the lines of M&E, result based writing and risk management.
