MASTER'S THESIS - INFLUENCE OF MONITORING AND EVALUATION ON PROJECT SUSTAINABILITY IN NIGERIA, A CASE STUDY OF LOCAL EMPOWERMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROJECT (LEEMP) IN BENUE STATE

Profile image of THEOPHILUS EMMANUEL

This study examines the Influence of Monitoring and Evaluation on Project Sustainability in Nigeria, A Case Study of Local Empowerment and Environmental Management Project (LEEMP) in Benue State. Monitoring and Evaluation (M & E) helps to track project performance at any given time and provides reasons for an observed project status. In this study, M & E was defined as the key component of project management that gives control over the main parameters that define a project; scope, quality, resources, completion time and cost, as well as play major role in ensuring sustainability of the project. The objectives of the study were to determine the influence of monitoring and evaluation plan on project performance and sustainability in Nigeria; Investigate the extent to which monitoring and evaluation contribute to project performance and sustainability in Nigeria; Examine the implication of implementing development project without monitoring and evaluation plan; and Interrogate the benefits of adoption monitoring and evaluation framework on project performance and sustainability in Nigeria. The literatures reviewed on M & E traced the evolution of M & E and examined the paradigm shifts that have occurred from viewing M & E as a mere tracking tool to sustainability component. Given the research objective, design and methods, data collection and analysis were guided by the descriptive statistics. This approach was selected as the most appropriate for addressing the research questions. Secondary data as well as primary data sourced from interviews of 60 participants conducted through focus group discussion in 6 communities and 140 questionnaires were employed. Data analysis was conducted using both quantitative and qualitative method. The results show that monitoring and evaluation, indeed has influence on project performance and sustainability. Furthermore, the results show that the implication of implementing development project without monitoring and evaluation plan include lack of stakeholder engagement, lack of communication, and lack of clear roles and responsibilities, which will in turn leads to poor project performance and lack of sustainability. The study concluded that the monitoring and evaluation has direct influence on project performance and sustainability. Hence, Monitoring and evaluation should be comprehensive enough to measure the relevance, impact, sustainability and efficiency of a project or development interventions. Keywords: Monitoring, Evaluation, Project, Sustainability, Performance. Wordcount: 338 Words
