This guidance note has been produced by the Stabilisation Unit (SU). The SU is a cross-government unit providing expertise to build stability, prevent conflict and meet security challenges internationally.

A major challenge in supporting stabilisation efforts is understanding the effect of this assistance in diminishing the drivers of conflict and promoting foundations for peace.

This guidance note on Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) in Conflict and Stabilisation Settings supports such efforts. It augments the UK Government’s Approach to Stabilisation: A guide for policy makers and practitioners and the UK Department for International Development (DFID) Building Stability Framework which set out what the UK seeks to achieve in conflict affected and unstable environments.

This guidance draws on established and emerging thinking from leading international commentators and academics in the fields of monitoring, evaluation and learning as well as HMG’s work implementing MEL in conflict and stabilisation contexts.
