The IGAD Drought Resilience Initiative is pleased to announce di Monitoring tool, a new web-based project monitoring solution intended to facilitate the tracking of the IDDRSI development plans at regional, national and sub-national level. The decision to provide a harmonized project monitoring tool was reached at the 1st IDDRSI M&E Working Group meeting in September 2014 - where IGAD was requested to lead and coordinate the identification and deployment of the tool. The guiding principle IGAD used in identifying a result based monitoring tool to achieve the objectives of the IDDRSI regional M&E system was based on:

  • Real-time results monitoring for key indicators at Regional, National and Sub-national Level
  • Improve alignment & coordination among partners
  • Joint approach to harmonize development of indicators
  • Aggregations at all geographic levels
  • Implement multi-dimensional nature of programmatic interventions

Recurrent droughts and unpredictable rainfall patterns are characteristic features of the arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs) that comprise the Horn of Africa (HOA), where the 8 Member countries of IGAD (Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan and Uganda) are located. The droughts have been increasing in severity and frequency over the years and their impacts are exacerbated by advancing desertification, land degradation, global warming and climate change phenomena. These harsh and worsening ecological circumstances have created conditions of chronic vulnerability in the HOA, with persistent food insecurity, widespread economic hardships and untold human suffering, affecting the pastoralist and agro-pastoralist communities that inhabit the ASALs.
