• This Guide has been written to help project managers and M&E staff improve the quality of M&E in IFAD-supported projects.
  The Guide focuses on how M&E can support project management and engage project stakeholders in understanding project progress, learning from achievements and problems, and agreeing on how to improve both strategy and operations.
• The main functions of M&E are: ensuring improvement-oriented critical reflection, learning to maximise the impact of rural development projects, and showing this impact to be accountable.
  The Guide is meant to improve M&E in IFAD-supported projects, as a study found that most projects have a fairly low standard of M&E.
  The Guide provides comprehensive advice on how to set up and implement an M&E system, plus background ideas that underpin the suggestions.
