dc.description.abstractMonitoring and evaluation practices are useful management techniques for projects and programmes and their utility is widely lauded in the development sector. However, Soweto Community Home Based Care NPOs grapple with implementation of M & E practices because of inadequate resources to develop and maintain capability for M & E systems. The goal of this research paper was to explore how M & E practices empower Soweto Community Home-Based Care NPOS. Qualitative research method coupled with a multiple case study layout were used in this study. The study was done with 10 Soweto Community Home Based Care NPOs and they were selected using purposive and snowballing sampling techniques. Data was gathered through a semi-structured interview guide and further analysed through thematic analysis process. The results of this research presented that M & E practices are very critical for the implementation of CHBC Programme within CHBC NPOs as it empowers them to remain accountable to the reporting mandates of donors. Moreover, when funding is made available and adequate for M & E activities this assist the CHBC NPOs to enhance, build capacity and institutionalize M & E so that it empowers their decision making and enhance programme implementation. The conclusions were that, when more resources are directed at M & E activities then indeed M & E practices empowers CHBC NPOs. Overall recommendations were that future studies must look at addressing the gap of misaligned policies in relation to M & E practices within CHBC NPOs and look at the role of donors in the implementation of M & E practices. Lastly professionalizing M & E and training all personnel employed by CHBC NPOs to address Human capacity challenges experienced during M & E implementation is fundamental.
