Project Monitoring and Evaluation

As part of the Support Fund's monitoring and evaluation process, each project submitted regular reports throughout the funding period to help keep PATH updated on their general progress, achievement of milestones, and help make PATH aware of any issues arising from their work.  An Executive Summary and Final Report were also produced for each project, copies of which are available to download from the relevant webpages below.

You can find out more about the individual projects by clicking on each link.
