ICT has in the past acted as bridges of transformation and been a tool for economic development and social change. It is also gradually expanding its roots all around the space. The significant role of ICT in monitoring and evaluating a project by managing the data efficiently cannot be brushed off. The process of gathering and assessing data to make a judgment about an evaluation project is aided by ICT.
