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 .
