"Kahit hindi ko naiintindihan lahat, kasi hindi ako ang point person sa M&E... kasi kulang staff namin, kasi volunteers lang po kami... walang suweldo... gagawin namin ang lahat ng makakaya na magkaroon ng kalaaman on M&E" (PPA Participant)

"I just would like to let you know that your efforts are well appreciated. Inaamin namin na kulang ang HIV M&E capabilities namin... so kailangan rin namin ng tulong... so tulong-tulong na lang tayo!" (DOLE-OSHC Participant)

"Thank you for accommodating 3 participants from DSWD... this is a very good start... congratulations... we at DSWD is inspired more... this is a very good achievement. Be assured of our 101% support!" (DSWD Participant 1)

"Maraming salamat sa pagtangap sa akin... outlier ako kasi from the site ako. Thanks sa PNAC... congratulations. Malaking tulong sa akin, lalo na sa City namin, on how to establish or improve our M&E system. Malaking tulong din ito na naintindihan ko ang mga ginagawa ng National Agencies, kasi talagang iba dito sa baba [LGU] na palagi kaming nagwa-wonder kung ano ang ginagawa sa taas... ngayon, makaka-relate na ako" (LGU Participant)

"Natutuwa ako kasi all are excited... It gives me a lot of hope na may magandang patutunguhan ang AMTP5 at hindi siya imo-monitor na retrospect na 'ay palpak pala tayo 3 years ago'... and malaking bunot ng tinik, kasi hindi na kami mag-isang magtatrabaho sa HIV.. kasi maasahan ko na kayo. Ang DOH po ay aasa na hindi po siya nag-iisa na lang in the next 5 years... malaki po ang tulong na maibibigay ng bawat ahensiya sa DOH " (DOH-NEC Participant)

The Philippine M&E System

The Philippines has gone through a rigorous process of strengthening the monitoring and evaluation system in the last two years. The CRIS was pilot tested towards fulfilling the UNGASS goals.

Among the M&E components installed or enhanced in the last three years are: 1) surveillance, 2) evaluation and research, 3) data dissemination and use, 4) M&E partnerships [linkage with UN, Global Fund, and technical advisory groups], and the installation of a National M&E officer at the PNAC Secretariat.

Surveillance in Philippines is of two kinds, passive and active. The epidemiological information system seems to be working quite well. The information is collected by the National Epidemiology Center and shared across the DOH and PNAC and UNAIDS.

The program data however, is not being collected systematically. Most implementers also do not have a system of sharing information.

Although M and E is housed within the PNAC Secretariat’s office, the flow of reports has been challenging. The reporting is hampered by the absence of a clear mandate or department orders, and is largely left to the vagaries of interest and persons.

All the agencies of the PNAC that are mandated to contribute to the national plan do not have clear work plans and allocated funds.

The challenges faced by the M&E system are the following: 1) Limited functionality of M&E structure (there is no M&E unit supporting the PNAC officer; ad-hoc or project-based M&E working group); 2) no routine programme monitoring (because either programme plans are unclear or unavailable), 3) no HIV database or databank, 4) no capacity building plan for M&E .
