Task 8 - Monitor and evaluate

Contents in this section:

CHECK

A monitoring and evaluation framework should be developed to track the effectiveness of the ASM management approach and mitigation measures.

Task 8 – Monitor and evaluate

A monitoring and evaluation framework should be developed for ASM-related impact and risk mitigation. As part of SHIRA, the implementation of controls should be monitored, and their effectiveness should be evaluated so that corrective action can be taken where needed. An example is provided in Table 4K.7.

Long-term objectives identified as part of Review and Planning (Section 2) may also relate to ASM management, in which case a monitoring and evaluation framework should also be developed to track progress against the long-term objectives (see Section 2).

Sites should also develop indicators for monitoring of and tracking changes in the ASM context or its dynamics on an ongoing basis, such as the location of ASM activities, the number of ASM stakeholders involved, what type of ASM activities are being conducted, and changes in grievances or incidents related to ASM.
