Module Key Concepts
1. Disaster response and recovery projects can
impact the environment both positively and
negatively.
2. Disaster response and recovery projects need to
be assessed and designed to ensure that
environmental issues are identified, negative
environmental impacts are minimized, and
positive environmental opportunities are
supported.

Module Key Concepts (cont.)
3. Monitoring of disaster response and recovery
projects needs to include indicators that identify
and measure achievement of or changes to for
specific environment-related objectives or subobjectives.
4. These projects need to be evaluated to
determine if the environment-related actions
were appropriate and what their impact was, and
to draw lessons for future projects.

Indicators
What are “indicators” as applied to M&E?
 Indicators
provide clear statements of the precise
information needed to assess whether proposed
changes have occurred.
 Indicators
can be quantitative (numeric) or
qualitative (descriptive observations).

Exercise: Your Project
 Within each small group, identify one project that one
of your group members has worked on related to
humanitarian assistance.
 Identify one activity of that project that had an
environmental consequence, either positive or
negative.
 As a group, identify one indicator of environmental
impact and one measurement you might take to
gauge the impact.
