Syria Independent Monitoring 2

UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)

The aim of this programme is to provide independent monitoring of DFID-funded projects in Syria. Due to security risks, DFID has no presence in Syria and our staff manage projects remotely from Lebanon and the UK. This means we are unable to directly monitor the delivery and quality of DFID projects. Independent monitoring is our principal method of ensuring funding in Syria is being used as intended. It allows us to verify partners reporting and enhances the quality of our oversight. It is also instrumental to our risk mitigation and quality and control measures. The expected impact of this programme is to improve portfolio and programme delivery and performance, leading to improved development outcomes and stronger public and ministerial confidence in DFID Syria programming.
