Since the end of World War II, multilateral organizations, bilateral donors, and national governments have spent billions of dollars each year to address and resolve development challenges for better human outcomes. However, many of these challenges continue to recur. Dr. Samuel Taddesse, who has decades of experience designing, implementing and evaluating aid programs throughout the world, argues that development experts and policy makers should focus on understanding the nature and magnitude of the challenges and its causes and effects before embarking on designing and implementing interventions to resolve the problem. In Monitoring, Evaluating, and Improving, he highlights the building blocks for a robust approach to managing development results and outcomes. He recommends understanding the root causes of challenges, which requires involving stakeholders who can help brainstorm the best course of action. The book is also available in eBook format.
