7.5.4 Partnerships for M&E<br />

The key partners for effective M&E are local and national government authorities, representatives<br />

of stakeholder groups, national statistical offices or observatories that collect<br />

data for use in national planning (where they exist), donors, other agencies working on<br />

livelihoods and economic recovery, and civil society organizations (often including universities).<br />

Involving representatives of all key stakeholders, including target communities, in<br />

all stages of the M&E process can help to reduce tensions, and is crucial to the perceived<br />

neutrality of UNDP and the programme or project in question. Engagement with the<br />

U.N. agencies and other humanitarian or development partners in joint assessments,<br />

data sharing, and joint M&E, is often valuable.<br />
