How to plan a project with Theory of Change?

KKID

In the last years, the expectation that development projects focus more on their impacts (rather than just the smooth implementation of the project measures) has risen dramatically. Organisations and project staff struggle with high expectations to prove "impact" and with a multitude of definitions, concepts, and tools on the market.

They face with questions such as:

  • What makes up the impact chain of a project showing the underlying theory of change?
  • How can we keep an eye on unplanned and even negative impacts of our project?
  • How to find indicators to measure qualitative aspects?

This workshop will answer the above questions, and specifically, will enhance your ability to plan systematically in an impact-oriented way.

 

What will you learn in this workshop?

  • A better understanding of the significance of "Theory of Change" in the field of development cooperation and for the concrete project work.
  • How to increase the impact of your project by practicing impact-oriented project planning
  • How to assess qualitative impacts

By the end of this workshop, you will know how to:

  • Develop a Theory of Change
  • Define indicators for qualitative impacts

 

Who is this workshop for:

Participants shall be from organisations dealing with projects and programmes of development cooperation in all fields being responsible or involved in activities of project cycle management. Knowledge of formalized planning procedures like log frame-planning and the use of project cycle management is neither required nor will be taught.

 

Workshop methodology:

Exploring the significance of impact orientation in development cooperation and project work will lay a common ground. Then the workshop focuses on practical challenges of developing a Theory of Change step by step. When possible, inter-active methods will be used.

At the end you will receive the presentation shown and links as reference materials.

 

As the workshop language is English, it is necessary that all participants are fluent in the same.
