Makassar, December 24, 2024 – The Research and Community Service Institute (LPPM) of Hasanuddin University carried out the Monitoring and Evaluation (Monev) activity for researchers who received funding under the Riset Inovasi Indonesia Maju (RIIM) Batch 4 program, which is financed by the Education Fund Management Agency (LPDP).

A total of five researchers from various scientific disciplines, including animal husbandry and agriculture, were involved in this activity. The Monev focused on two main aspects: Substantive Monev, which aimed to measure the extent to which the research program has been realized according to plan, and Financial Monev, to ensure transparency and accountability in the use of the research budget.

The Monev process was conducted in a hybrid format, with the researchers attending in person while the reviewer team followed the activity via the Zoom platform. Each researcher presented their research progress report, covering target achievements, challenges encountered, strategic future steps, and a detailed report on the use of the budget.

The goal of this Monitoring and Evaluation is, as with Monev in general, to ensure that all research proceeds according to the established plan and objectives, while also providing an assurance of accountability for the funding utilized.

This Monev is expected to be an important benchmark in driving the achievement of high-quality and impactful research outcomes, in alignment with the vision of the Riset Inovasi Indonesia Maju program.
