Dear Safar, Thanks for your interest in Result-Based Monitoring and Evaluation. Just like the M&E you have been practicing before, a result-based M&E is the same, what brings out the distinction lies in the emphasis the result-based M&E system places on results. Usually, the M&E framework starts with the inputs such as capacity, finance etc to activities detailing out what the inputs will be used for and then to the output which is the immediate result of the activities carried out, to the outcome which is defined as the short term result and lastly, the impact which is what every program/project sets out to achieve. So for a result-based M&E, the emphasis is on the outcome and impact unlike the traditional M&E that usually stopped at the output. If it is not very clear, I can explain further. Thanks.
