Energy Monitoring Framework Survey (2017-2021)

The UNHCR Energy Monitoring Framework takes a program-based approach to monitoring, with the aim of tracking both outputs and the impact of UNHCR dollars spent on programming (either via partners or through direct implementation). The process for developing the indicators began in 2015 with a review of existing tools and approaches and consultations with Government, Private Sector, field-based staff and NGO partners to devise a set of common, standardized measures rooted in global good practices.

The scope includes:
- household characteristics
- cookware and kitchen performance
- fuel
- lightining

The Beneficiary Survey, which typically aims to measure impact indicators, is conducted at least twice at Baseline and Endline of the project with the same group of sample beneficiaries. The Baseline Survey is conducted before the project intervention with planned beneficiaries of the project, while the Endline is administered a few months later (or a period considered adequate by each project) to the same beneficiaries.

Questionaire contains the following sections:
- partner information
- general information on beneficiary
- common questions

- kitchen performance test (kpt) survey day 1
