34 Relevance of the SDGs to the project Water-related SDGs are made part of pan-african M&E system Principle: Avoid duplication adopt SDG indicators as is Total in AMCOW system: 35 targets 40 indicators 19 indicators are copies of SDG indicators, 8 indicators are slightly modified SDG indicators, 13 are not reflected in SDGs SDG indicators covered: All indicators under Goal / 11.5 / 13.1 / 13.2 Approaching the SDGs through Innovation in Water Management WI#1: SDGs and water significance for global water management in the next decades May 18 th, 2016

35 Challenges M&E in itself does not change action on the ground but public access to performance data may create a pressure to deliver Dilemma: Keep it simple vs Provide all relevant information Difficulties for some countries to even do M&E. Capacity building needed also beyond this project.
