- Summary
-
The Monitoring and Evaluation for Energy and Development International Working Group (M&EED) was initiated by GVEP in 2003 in response to a request from one of its partners (Electricity de France) to cooperate in developing indicators for measuring the impact of energy services on general development – poverty reduction, health, education etc. The EUEI joined soon after and the Group has expanded since to include major actors in this field such as UNDP, UNEP, World Bank, GNESD, REEEP, ADEME, GTZ, Energia, and UK based private sector organisations like Future Energy Solutions, Fraunhofer ISE and IT Power.
- Full Description
-
In 2006 the M&EED group launched a short guide to Monitoring and Evaluation in Energy Projects (available in English and French). This Guidebook attempts to systematically document a methodology followed by suggestions on application to concrete projects. The methodology was based largely on monitoring and evaluation of energy projects and programmes of the institutions and individuals involved in the group.
GVEP International will host the work of the M&EED group in the next years. It is expected that members of the group will be experts in the field and we welcome additional members to the group.
The M&E knowledge base will be updated regularly in this site. If you would like to highlight a specific document or methodology on the subject, please forward it to us.Additional questions about the development of this GVEP International service should be addressed to Kavita Rai at kavita.rai@gvep.org
