Summary

The provided text outlines the Monitoring, Evaluation and Impact Assessment (MEIA) framework designed for South Africa's Human Settlements Sector. This policy establishes a results-based management approach to track the effectiveness of national housing programs and sanitation initiatives between 2013 and 2019. It derives its authority from the Housing Act of 1997 and the Constitution, mandating that all levels of government maintain transparency and accountability in service delivery. By utilizing standardised indicators and data collection tools, the framework aims to move beyond simple output tracking to measure long-term socio-economic impacts. The document serves as a comprehensive guide for practitioners to identify implementation weaknesses, share lessons learned, and ensure that public resources successfully create sustainable human settlements.
