How we track results
The same MEAL cycle behind every project.
Every GIMPACS project runs on the same accountability framework, from baseline to endline evaluation.
01
Baseline
A comprehensive assessment before activities begin, setting the reference point for everything measured later.
02
Track
Performance Indicator Tracking Tables, activity reports and facility registers record progress as it happens.
03
Verify
Joint monitoring visits with local health and education authorities validate data and mentor field teams.
04
Evaluate
An endline evaluation measures relevance, effectiveness and impact, with findings shared with partners.
