Au niveau mondial, les programmes de prévention du VIH sont soumis à des pressions pour documenter la redevabilité et les réalisations par le biais de critères « fondés sur des données probantes » ou « de suivi et d'évaluation » (« S&E »). Néanmoins, on sait peu de choses sur la façon dont le S&E se déroule sur le terrain et/ou sur les effets sociaux et politiques qu'il engendre. Cet article explore la perception que se font les acteurs des ONG ghanéennes de la documentation quotidienne d'un programme de prévention du VIH financé par l'USAID. À partir d'une enquête de terrain ethnographique d'une durée de vingt mois, l'auteure décrit la façon dont la documentation S&E reproduit les relations d'aide hiérarchiques en incitant les acteurs des ONG à s'autogouverner par le respect strict et inattendu des exigences documentaires. Elle étudie en outre la frustration que ressentent les dirigeants institutionnels obligés de s'en remettre à la documentation afin d'illustrer le processus de reproduction indirecte des inégalités.
