Baseline Recurrent Monitoring System for Health in Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

This baseline report establishes a benchmark for follow-up rounds of a recurrent monitoring system (RMS) taking place in North Kivu Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). An RMS is a survey and analysis method that uses panel data from the same households over several timepoints to capture real-time or near real-time information on shocks, capacities, and health and well-being outcomes. This report covers an RMS that is a part of work done by MOMENTUM Integrated Health Resilience, which seeks to assess the impact of shocks on health and health resilience capacities, as measured by individual and household knowledge, skills, behaviors, assets, social capital, and coping strategies related to voluntary family planning and reproductive health; maternal, newborn, and child health; and nutrition.

Performance Mapping and Improvement System (PERFORM)

PERFORM is an easy-to-use, systems-oriented tool based on MOMENTUM Knowledge Accelerator’s Enhanced Organizational Capacity Framework that assists partners and program implementers in identifying needed performance improvement course corrections in a timely manner. PERFORM offers a comprehensive suite of performance enhancement tools and processes that instills a deeper understanding of performance improvement and a discipline of reflection and learning within an organization. PERFORM can advance localization through flexible, locally driven processes that yield validated measurement results and strengthen skills for internal analysis and self-learning. The system’s framework and monitoring approach, through short-term cycles, can be applied on its own or in combination with components of other assessment tools and monitoring processes. Further, PERFORM can yield measurable results for reporting on USAID’s CBLD-9 local capacity indicator and can contribute to the 10 best practices in USAID’s locally led programs indicator.
