dKey criteria
• relevance – the degree to which the objectives of a programme remain valid and significant;
• performance – progress of a programme towards achieving its objectives, in terms of effectiveness, efficiency and timeliness;
• success – attaining a measurable level of benefits that can be directly attributed to the programme, in terms of impact, sustainability and capacity development.

dMeasurements
• Indicators – What to be measures
• Targets – how much by when
• Baselines – current status
• Milestones – achieving an activity
• With vs Without
• Before vs After

dSMART Indicators
• Specific
• Measurable
• Achievable
• Relevant
• Time-bound
• A good balance should be achieved between theory and practice, i.e., between what should be and what can be measured
Indicators are "yardsticks" that can be used to demonstrate that changes have (or have not) taken place. They provide meaningful and comparable information on changes.
