The MEL methodology provides a robust framework to: (M) monitor, systematically track progress ensuring activities are on track and objectives are met; (E) critically evaluate the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainability of a program, identifying strengths and opportunities for improvement; (L) continuously integrate lessons learned, enhancing strategies and optimizing results – crucial for GSS’s ongoing challenge to ensure meaningful legacy through each program. 

 

The flexibility of the MEL methodology allows it to be tailored to the specific needs of each program, ensuring effective and contextualized implementation without compromising the standardization and quality of accountability.

Resource mobilization, allocation, and management in this context require planning and knowledge for decision-making by both implementers and project supporters.
