All rights reserved. Please do not reproduce without appropriately citing the United States Institute of Peace Selection Process  Match your strategic goals to generic MPICE goals  Select indicators that are valid representations of the goals  Identify measures that tap the essence of the indicator in your context  Can the data required actually be collected?  If not, use a different methodology

All rights reserved. Please do not reproduce without appropriately citing the United States Institute of Peace Tailoring Process  Word the measures you have selected so they conform to the context  In Haiti “violent armed groups” equate to gangs  Identify the level at which the data should be collected (e.g. national, regional, provincial)  Determine how often the data should be collected (monthly, quarterly, annually)
