is then used to create a unique algorithm for further evaluation of projects for this specific organization. Depending on the individual and specific characteristics of the project, the evaluation model will include the elements and procedures that are most helpful in improving the efficiency of the project. In other words, the UEP is a unique map of the tasks and directions for monitoring and evaluation for a particular project. It includes the so-called "hygiene factors” — the minimum required activities for each project, and factors specific to the project under evaluation, taking into account the specifics of its target audience, the requests for data from a "third party” (for example, an organization that acts as a grantmaker), the need to assess economic efficiency, etc. The profile includes an assessment of the project according to 13 criteria, including the ability to control results at longterm impact level (outcomes), the limitations in providing feedback to the target audience, the need to assess the economic performance of the project, the availability of a project monitoring system, and others. At least three people from each organization should participate in the development of the UEP: a project manager, a member of the project team working with beneficiaries, and a specialist responsible for external communications. It may also be helpful to include the head of the organization in the team tasked with the development of the UEP. An integral UEP of a project is obtained when team members individually fill out questionnaires, and then the results are compared, thus choosing the optimal result for each criterion. Which, by the way, is not always the result of simple averaging.
