m Consulted these documents with the UNDP CO till to a final draft;
m The training manual was designed according to the needs of the participants as well as the TOR requests.
m URI presented also the methodology for designing the training manual and delivering the requested trainings (5 regional trainings).
m URI designed the training manual on Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation Tools based on adult learning principles targeting NGO sector and local government.
m The training delivery methodology is interactive.
m URI presented a detailed Work- Plan with all activities planned to be undertaken.
m URI used the UNDP CS Needs Assessment Report and Regional Development Strategies (RDS) for Fier and/or Kukes along with Fier RDS Progress Report as guidance.
III. Training Manual
The training manual is focused on:
§ Participatory process for defining, monitoring and evaluating development policies;
§ Importance of baseline, intermediate and final indicators, how they are set and monitored;
§ Public budgeting and its share of spending per sectors (public expenditure tracking)
§ Citizen report Cards as a tool to measure public satisfaction for public service delivery;
§ Case studies/sample of examples for participatory processes in Albania;
The training manual is composed of two main components:
F The first one deals with the general techniques and tools on how to monitor and evaluate the performance and the progress. URI’s concept is based on the OECD monitoring and evaluation definition:
F The second one is a more practical component. Since there is a comprehensive matrix of targets and indicators in place, specific tools are recommended to measure specific indicators taken out from the national and regional strategic documents and that matrix. In this part/session, a range of study cases on participatory processes in Albania and other countries are integrated. This includes examples from projects such as Participatory Budgeting in Albania (World Bank funded and implemented by URI), Participatory Local Development Planning and PM&E (WB/ADF), Participatory Strategic Planning in Albania (UNDP) etc. These examples increased the participant’s knowledge on participatory tools and methods as well as motivated them on implementing those tools/methods.
The entire Training methodologies, approaches and tool are based on the fundamental concept of Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation (PM&E)

C Developed a Training Manual in Albanian on participatory monitoring and evaluation tools for national and regional development policies.
