This internal mid-term review (MTR) report evaluates the 'Table Mountain Water Source Area Partnership: Protecting critical groundwater' project, funded by the Danish Embassy and managed by WWF South Africa. The project aims to establish effective joint management systems for groundwater in the Table Mountain Strategic Water Source Area (TM-SWSA) by 2022 through a multi-layered Theory of Change involving groundwater monitoring, awareness raising, and governance. The MTR, conducted in late 2021, identifies successes in awareness raising and the establishment of a multi-stakeholder partnership, while highlighting challenges related to COVID-19, data accessibility, and the complexities of operating within an unequal urban environment.

This guidance paper, published by FSD Africa in January 2016, outlines a framework for Financial Sector Deepening (FSD) programmes to develop an Impact-Oriented Measurement (IOM) system. It specifically focuses on Stage 2a of the IOM process: measuring what change has happened. The document provides a methodology for moving beyond traditional project-level monitoring toward capturing systemic market changes, combining bottom-up project data with top-down sector tracking to bridge the evidence gap between direct outputs and long-term financial inclusion outcomes.

This monitoring and evaluation report describes the Conservation Agriculture Project 1 (CAP1), implemented by the Zambian National Farmers Union's Conservation Farming Unit from 2006 to 2011 to support 120,000 farm households in specific Zambian regions.

The MAP-FIRE project, funded by the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research, focuses on quantifying fire risk and developing adaptation strategies for the Amazonian states of Madre de Dios (Peru), Acre (Brazil), and Pando (Bolivia). The project has developed near-real-time monitoring platforms for fire and air quality, produced technical reports on the links between fire, deforestation, and the COVID-19 pandemic, and implemented science communication initiatives for academics and students.

The 'SCF2 MEL Guidance Notes 2022-05' provides a framework for Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) for the Strategic Collaborative Fund Phase 2 (SCF2). It outlines a two-layer measurement design: event-level MEL implemented by partners and programme-level evaluation managed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI). The guide details specific tools for data collection, GDPR-compliant data handling protocols, ethical requirements for human subject engagement, and environmental assessment criteria for funded events.

This fact sheet describes the Planning, Monitoring, Evaluation and Communication (PMEC) system, a custom web-based tool developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) in 2010 to measure the quality and impact of its work at the intersection of science, policy, and practice.

The WRI Results Framework is a strategic document that maps the organization's goals, intervention targets, and impact indicators across three primary human systems: food, land & water; energy; and cities. It establishes a hierarchy of results from global targets (by 2030) to WRI intervention targets (by 2027) and specific country-level targets, all designed to improve human well-being, protect nature, and tackle climate change.
