Monitoring, evaluation and reporting The business of the APF is complex, long term and unpredictable. It aims for an Asia Pacific region where everyone enjoys human rights. Over the five year period of this strategic plan, the APF will prioritise a range of specific groups as the ultimate beneficiaries of its activities. The APF will do so by working with its member NHRIs in the Asia Pacific. It will support them in developing strong legislation for their effective operation and seek to help them strengthen their capacity in the areas of complaints, education, monitoring, advocacy and reporting. The APF also seeks to develop a greater recognition of NHRI roles at national, regional and international levels including within the UN system. In all these tasks, the APF is focused on its own good governance and sustainable resourcing. The APF will implement a straightforward and valid means of evaluating its effectiveness and monitoring its performance in the implementation of the 2015–2020 strategic plan. A framework of indicators and measurement methods will measure performance against outcomes and APF functions. At the outcomes level, monitoring will focus on results achieved. At the functions level, monitoring will focus on the relevance and quality of APF’s interventions, particularly in protecting those most in need. This monitoring, evaluation and reporting framework will generate useful performance information to help inform management decisions, satisfy donor reporting requirements and communicate APF performance in implementing its Strategic Plan to members and other stakeholders.
