- To create best practice models, tools and techniques for gender and rights based results oriented participatory monitoring and evaluation.
- To ensure that a gendered approach is entrenched in the evaluation of development and in development evaluation.
- To develop the capacity of network members, M&E practitioners, and managers of development projects and programs for deep understanding of gender and human rights issues, concepts, tools and techniques so that they routinely conduct gender and rights based analyses of their development work and the outcomes of this work..
- To influence policies and development practice at national, regional and continental levels towards greater accountability and equality through M&E.
- To facilitate co-operation, collaboration, networking and learning among members and like-minded individuals and organizations.
