The South African Monitoring and Evaluation Association (SAMEA), which has been founded in November 2005, strives to cultivate a vibrant community that will support, guide and strengthen the development of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) as an important discipline, profession and instrument for empowerment and accountability in South Africa. Through this it intends to promote the recognition of M&E as a profession and discipline essential to development, and practiced and used in a manner that adds significant value to effective, sustainable development in South Africa.
SAMEA embodies the formalisation of the South African Evaluation Network (SAENet), which was established in 2002.

All South African Monitoring and Evaluation Association (SAMEA) members and other individuals interested in the M&E environment in South Africa are invited to join this forum. Becoming a member of this forum will enable people to receive more information about SAMEA (news, events and activities), communicate with colleagues, share interesting information, advertise employment opportunities and promote training courses and other activities of interest to the evaluation community in South Africa. SAMEATalk replaces the SAENet listserv at Topica.
