Developing a monitoring and evaluating capability for the U.S. Department of Defense Humanitarian Assistance Program.

Abstract:

UNLABELLED:The Department of Defense spends more than $50 million dollars a year on humanitarian assistance (HA) projects. Although the projects are perceived as beneficial, demonstrating sustainable long-term impact is not possible. METHODS:A seven-step monitoring and evaluation (M&E) process was adapted for this study that combined different steps within a logical framework approach. RESULTS:A retrospective analysis found that M&E is not part of the HA program (HAP) process from nomination through completion and beyond. To address this M&E deficiency, a comprehensive logframe matrix composed of 5 goals, 14 objectives, 100 activities, and many indicators was created. CONCLUSIONS:Incorporating this proposed Department of Defense HAP logframe matrix into existing project nomination and After-Action Report (AAR) processes would enable HAP managers to prioritize limited resources, demonstrate sustainable program impact, and align individual HA projects with the overarching national defense strategy and overall U.S. government foreign policy.
