Global programs / Global project 936-5402 · 1979–1991 · Socio-Economic Systems Corp. (SES)
A handbook for use in assessing the impact of the MEREC (Managing Energy and Resource Efficient Cities) project in the City of Tacloban, the Philippines, is presented. The project is a complex, broadbased effort to improve resource utilization and energy efficiency through initiatives/improvements in land use, transportation, waste management, water/sewer systems, housing construction, and electricity, and through public education. The first three chapters, respectively, provide a historical overview of impact measurement and its methodologies, describe the MEREC project, and present a general approach to the impact assessment of development projects. Provided next is a chart which defines specific impact indicators for the MEREC project. In the remaining chapters - which constitute the bulk of the document - more than 100 impact evaluation forms are presented and their use exemplified. Included are forms for assessing the project as a whole and forms for assessing subsector activities.

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
A few documents to read first. Each opens in the side panel, with the PDF to download.
