Assessing Progress on the Road to Peace

This paper evolved out of the experiences of GPPAC in setting up a planning, monitoring and evaluation system. During this process, discussions about monitoring and evaluation took place within the network. These discussions revealed that many of the civil society organisations are facing challenges in monitoring and evaluating conflict prevention activities; most of them are still looking for effective tools and methods to assess the results of their work. We hope that the information in this paper will help them and others in this field to find suitable ways to plan, monitor and evaluate conflict prevention activities.
