This project report discusses various forms of support provided to local government units (LGUs) in local financial planning and management (LFPM). It aims to provide an inventory and a consolidated report of organizations or institutions that support the progress of financial planning and management in LGUs. The principal findings of this study are firstly, LFPM institutional assistance at the local level is limited. Secondly, national government agencies and international finance institutions provide financial, technical and policy assistance while academic institutions, nongovernment organizations and to a certain extent the LGUs themselves focused on technical assistance. Finally, LFPM assistance impresses upon local chief executives the relationship between local government fiscal performance and managerial enhancement.
Organizational Analysis In Personnel Management Abu Jaiyana
Organizational analysis is the process of reviewing an organization's development, work environment, personnel, operations, structure, and systems. It can help identify inefficiencies, problems, and opportunities for improvement. When conducting an analysis, models like the strategic triangle model, SWOT analysis, McKinsey 7S framework, and Mintzberg's organizational structures can help sort information and identify connections. The analysis focuses on an organization's mission, capacity, and legitimacy as well as its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.

This document provides an overview of quantitative and qualitative research methods. Quantitative methods aim to quantify relationships between variables through statistical analysis of numerical data from large samples, seeking to generalize findings to populations. They use structured techniques like questionnaires and surveys. Qualitative methods seek to explore phenomena through flexible, semi-structured collection of textual data from a few cases, aiming to provide an in-depth understanding rather than generalization. They use techniques like interviews and observation. The document compares the analytical objectives, question formats, data formats, flexibility, sampling, and data collection/analysis processes of quantitative and qualitative methods.

sampling in research methodology. qualitative and quantitative approach Samantha Jayasundara
This document discusses different sampling methods used in qualitative and quantitative research. It explains that qualitative research typically uses purposeful sampling to select information-rich cases, while quantitative research aims for random sampling to generalize to the population. Several specific sampling techniques are outlined for both qualitative and quantitative research, including their advantages and disadvantages. Key differences in the assumptions between qualitative and quantitative sampling are also highlighted.
The session presents gender analysis tools that can be used during project design, implementation and evaluation. The gender analysis tools will help to make the development intervention gender sensitive, so that the benefits of project reach both women and men.
Methodology For Formulation And Appraisal of a Projectimrohan1
The document outlines the methodology for project formulation and appraisal. It discusses the 5 stages of project formulation: 1) feasibility studies, 2) detailed studies, 3) developing project options, 4) detailed site development plans, and 5) implementation. The stages involve identifying needs, assessing sites, developing alternatives, designing plans, and implementing in phases while monitoring and evaluating progress.
The document provides guidance on using the logical framework approach (LFA) to design projects in a systematic and logical way. It discusses key aspects of the LFA including problem analysis, objectives analysis, strategy analysis, developing the logframe matrix, activity planning, and resource planning. The LFA helps ensure problems are analyzed systematically, objectives are clearly defined and measurable, and risks and assumptions are considered. Using the LFA helps make project proposals more coherent and increases the chances of securing donor funding.
The document analyzes the US healthcare system, noting that large corporations like CVS, McKesson, UnitedHealth Group, and HCA operate as profit-seeking entities in healthcare delivery. These corporations spend over $500 million annually on lobbying, more than any other industry. Given the influence of corporate lobbying on federal regulation of healthcare, the system that results can be expected to prioritize profits over other concerns. Charts show that despite spending far more on healthcare, the US lags behind other developed nations on metrics like infant mortality and life expectancy. Existing institutions that benefit financially from the current system will resist reforms that threaten their bottom line.
There are two main approaches to research - quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative emphasizes numbers, measurements, and experimentation, while qualitative emphasizes natural settings, observations, and interpretations. The goals and designs of the two approaches also differ, with quantitative aiming to test hypotheses and qualify aiming to build theory. Sample sizes, data collection methods, and types of data also tend to differ between quantitative and qualitative research. Mixed methods research involves using elements of both quantitative and qualitative research.
Qualitative and quantitative methods of researchJordan Cruz
The document compares and contrasts qualitative and quantitative research methods. It discusses that qualitative research aims to understand social interactions through smaller, non-randomly selected samples, while quantitative research seeks to test hypotheses and make predictions using larger, randomly selected samples and specific variables. It also outlines the different types of data collected, forms of analysis, roles of researchers, and final reporting structures between the two methods.

It notes that LMEs produce 80% of global fisheries catches and contribute $12.6 trillion annually to the global economy. The document outlines the five module assessment approach used for LMEs, including productivity, fish/fisheries, pollution, socioeconomics, and governance. It discusses how the Global Environment Facility has provided $6.01 billion since 1994 to support EBM planning and implementation projects in 22 LMEs. The LME approach is now the cornerstone of the GEF's ocean management strategy.

TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 1Iwl Pcu
This document discusses the development of a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA). It outlines the steps to develop the TDA, including defining system boundaries, collecting and analyzing data, identifying and prioritizing transboundary problems, determining the impacts of priority problems, analyzing causes of problems, and developing thematic reports. It also discusses that the TDA provides factual basis for the strategic planning component and should involve engagement with stakeholders throughout the process. Finally, it notes that the TDA development team should be representative of participating countries and stakeholders.
TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 10Iwl Pcu
This document provides information about governance analysis as part of the TDA/SAP process. It defines governance as the process of decision-making and implementation. Governance analysis examines the key aspects of political, economic, and civil society processes. It focuses on the dynamics of these relationships. There is no agreed approach, and the type of analysis will depend on the cultural, political, and social structures of the countries involved. The governance analysis should consider the decision-making, institutional, policy, and civil society arrangements that influence economic and political decisions affecting the issues being analyzed. The document provides advice to go beyond formal structures and understand informal dynamics and relationships.

There is no agreed approach, and the type of analysis will depend on the cultural, political, and social structures of the countries involved. The governance analysis should consider decision-making processes, institutional structures, policy frameworks, economic arrangements, and civil society arrangements. Advice is given to use existing assessments, go beyond formal structures, attend coordination meetings, and interview long-time staff to understand informal dynamics.
TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 9Iwl Pcu
This document provides guidance on drafting a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA). It discusses integrating various parts of the TDA, such as thematic reports, studies, and stakeholder analyses. It recommends that a TDA should be concise and easy to understand, with an executive summary, main text, supporting data/figures, maps, a content list, and acknowledgements. Technical reports can be annexed. The TDA size typically ranges from 80-150 pages. Preliminary recommendations for the Strategic Action Program can be included. The TDA should be reviewed by stakeholders and adopted by the steering committee, though government acceptance is also often required.
TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 5Iwl Pcu
1) This training module covers developing the Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA), which involves determining the environmental and socio-economic impacts of priority transboundary problems.
2) Environmental impacts are effects on ecosystem integrity, while socio-economic impacts are changes in human welfare from environmental problems.
3) A two-step process is used to determine impacts: 1) Identifying impacts of each problem through a workshop, and 2) Qualitatively or quantitatively describing key impacts through available data and information.

TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 7Iwl Pcu
This document provides guidance on developing thematic reports for a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA). Thematic reports are the main source of supporting information for the TDA and are drafted by national experts. The document outlines a two-step process for developing the reports: 1) key areas and national experts are identified based on prioritized transboundary problems, and 2) reports are drafted and reviewed by the TDA development team. Examples of thematic reports from previous TDAs are provided. Advice is given to allow sufficient time for reports, ensure appropriate expertise, and develop clear terms of reference.

TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 6Iwl Pcu
This document provides an overview of causal chain analysis (CCA) as part of the Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) process. It defines CCA as examining the linear cause and effect relationships between the causes of a problem and its impacts. The key components of a causal chain are described as the immediate, underlying, and root causes. A stepwise process for developing causal chains is outlined, including identifying the chain components and further developing the chains with data. Examples of completed causal chains for different regions are also presented.
