First Monitoring & Evaluation




Compacted The Stone One By One



Agust 27, 2006 - Monitoring and Evaluation of project by CP and CF. I must say that I was touched by the progress the community has done. On the most difficult steep dirt road edges, the community has compacted the stone one by one to form the neat and steady base for concreting. The concrete will be the mixture of Cement, Sand and Pebles.

Today, Sunday at 8.15 in the morning we are watching the father, mother and children were crushing, compacting the road edge with stone, sampling of 5 meter by 2 meter wide and 5 cm deep to count the need of the concrete mixture. We were also monitoring and discussing on the accounting procedure and the activity report format.

Preparation of the road edge is quite a challenge for the community. Although they are using the local knowledge wisdom they still need to be guided in some of the steep and dangerous areas. For efficiency purposes, together we were figuring out the most efficient way to do the concreting and time effective as we were also considering that the rainy season will soon arrive.
