Monitoring, evaluation and learning

GPE’s 2025 monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) framework aims to drive evidence-based learning and decision-making to improve performance across the partnership. This aim is achieved through:

Supporting learning and the use of evidence at the country level to enable adaptive management and strengthen the capacity to drive results.
Strategic monitoring, evaluation and learning for accountability, transparency and aggregating results at the partnership level.

Monitoring

Regular data collection, dissemination and use are important for furthering our mission and achieving our goals. Robust data helps ensure all partners have key information readily available to monitor partnership effectiveness and support the effective implementation and outcomes of our grants.

Monitoring includes the GPE results framework and an annual results report.

Results framework

The results framework is aligned with the GPE strategy. It aims to support strategic decision-making and transparency by allowing the partnership to monitor progress in the main areas of its strategy.

The results framework includes sector-level indicators that are disaggregated by country and individual characteristics (fragility status for countries, sex and disability status for children, as available). The framework also includes indicators related to GPE grants and programs.

The results framework structure follows GPE 2025 strategic framework

Grant monitoring

GPE monitors the thematic allocation, progress and performance of its grants. The data and findings are reported in results reports and in the documents below.

Results reports

GPE produces an annual results report that provides updates on the status of the results framework indicators, analyzes the trends and consolidates information from evaluations and other evidence-based reviews.

The results report provides a comprehensive snapshot of GPE’s achievements and areas for improvement. The report also aims to support the GPE Board and committees' decision-making and to promote evidence-based learning across the partnership.
