The challenge
Start with the operational problem.
Consolidate several campaigns, districts, value chains and input categories without confusing unique beneficiaries with cumulative support, then turn the data into a reliable account of achievements.
The response
Build a coherent system.
At regional level, monitoring structured by campaign and territory with consistency checks and consolidation of seven districts. At national level, a separate synthesis, results-focused drafting and knowledge-capture process for project closure.
My role
Work across the useful chain.
Regional mandate - as Head of SRSISESA: MEL and regional database management, data control across seven districts and regional reporting. Separate national assignment - specifically requested at closure to consolidate results, lead drafting of the final report and knowledge-capture document, and contribute to the final workshop.
Result
Across four campaigns, regional monitoring covered 13,643 cumulative farm-household support instances, 233,828 kg of seed, 195,020 kg of NPK and 7,351,450 kg of organic fertiliser.
