Following the previous post, I wonder if there are any effects of the monitoring results on an evaluation.

Glad to hear that.

Thanks. It helps!

Yes, your instinct is very sensitive. Briefly speaking, the evaluation will often also make use of pure monitoring indicators. The information provided by these indicators can help, for example, in verifying initial steps in the chain of causality, to scale up the impacts that have been identified through analysis of a limited sample.
