About 

Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) is a thorough way for QRA to demonstrate the programs we invest in are making a difference. The objectives of M&E are to:

  • demonstrate performance against the DRFA’s principles
  • support learning, performance improvement, decision-making and accountability
  • assist QRA to understand (across packages and portfolios):
    • what’s working, for whom, why, how and at what cost
    • what aspects can be improved to better respond to community needs
    • if packages are achieving their recovery and resilience objectives
  • contribute to the existing knowledge base of disaster recovery and resilience measures in Queensland (and Australia, more broadly).

Purpose 

Monitoring and Evaluation for the  North Queensland Monsoon Trough, Associated Tropical Cyclone Koji and Severe Weather 24 December 2025 to 11 February 2026  seeks to:

  • evaluate Category C and D packages supported by evaluation plans, frameworks and logic models/theories of change
  • deliver evaluation reports (per evaluation cluster approach) to the Commonwealth
  • publish evaluation reports on the Australian Institute of Disaster Resilience Knowledge Hub.

Findings will be used to support future program design and delivery, as well as build QRA’s M&E capabilities.
