Abstract

This document provides the first guideline to inform community-based monitoring (CBM) implementation in Ethiopia. It has been developed following citizen science research in Ethiopia since March 2014, where multiple study sites have had CBM implemented using an iterative process leading to continual improvement of the methodology. In addition, the manual considers successful CBM in India, the UK and South Africa which have informed and been informed by the Ethiopia research.
