A large amount of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) data is collected in various formats throughout the Forestry Commission, which has the potential to inform practice, decision-making and policy. However, much of this data is unprocessed, lacks analytical value because a baseline was missing, or is not made available to interested stakeholders. Furthermore, both locally and nationally, active processes for the analysis and interpretation of trends and implications are rarely in place, or are applied inconsistently across different parts of the organisation.
There are some important consequences of this:
This research aims to assess best practice in M&E, and provide models to ensure the findings of M&E are assimilated and applied in ways that help make the organisation and its partners to be more responsive, adaptive and sustainable.

This was a three year project running from 2010-2012.
