How does ILP ensure that disbursed funds are properly utilized?
We select projects carefully through our Participatory Evaluation Process (PEP). We monitor projects in a consistent and ongoing manner. Monitoring to specific metrics is a critical reason for our project successes and is our core strength. The ILP India team, comprising of staff and volunteers with over 15 years of experience working at the grass roots level, plays a key part in this process. We also consult with outside experts whenever needed. Such expertise helps ILP to not only to manage the funds disbursed to our partner organizations, but also to build their capacity to manage future projects.
