This document provides an overview of logic models and their components for program planning and evaluation. It defines the key elements of a logic model as the situation, inputs, outputs, outcomes, and assumptions. The situation establishes the problem a program aims to address. Inputs refer to the resources invested in the program. Outputs are the activities and people reached. Outcomes are the short-term, intermediate, and long-term results of the program. Assumptions recognize beliefs about how the program will work. A logic model displays the relationships between these elements and can be used as a communication tool.

Applying impact evaluation tools for integrating agricultural sectors in Nati...UNDP Climate
- Uganda and Zambia are carrying out activities to better assess adaptation options through cost-benefit analysis and impact evaluation exercises, as part of the Integrating Agriculture in National Adaptation Plans (NAP-Ag) Programme led by FAO and UNDP.
Both Uganda and Zambia are also paving way for gender mainstreaming into National Adaptation Plans, with recent cross-sectoral workshops held in May and June to discuss these topics and pave the way for integrated strategies.
This session seeks to instruct and train students who want to further engage their service with policy-oriented solutions. This session will cover the ways students can begin to seek impactful evidence-based practices to inform the policies that lead to social change.
A textbook must provide, first and foremost, information to assist the reader in better understanding the topic. Second, it ought to provide the information in a way that can be easily accessed and digested, and it needs to be credible. Textbooks
that have gone through multiple editions continue to improve as a result of reviewers’ comments and readers’ feedback, and this one is no exception. Looking back over the efforts associated with this Fifth Edition, the old wedding custom of “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue” comes to
mind. We have built upon the solid foundation of previous editions, but then added “something new.” It almost goes without saying that we have “borrowed” from others in that we both cite and quote examples of program evaluation studies
from the literature. “Something blue” . . . well, we’re not sure about that. Those who have used the Fourth Edition might be interested in knowing what has changed in this new edition. Based on reviewers’ comments we have:
• Created a new chapter to explain sampling.
• Incorporated new material on designing questionnaires.
• Overhauled the chapter on qualitative evaluation. It is now “Qualitative and Mixed Methods in Evaluation.”
• Reworked the “Formative and Process Evaluation” chapter with expanded coverage on developing logic models.
• Added new studies and references; new Internet sources of information.
• Included new examples of measurement instruments (scales) with a macro
focus.
• Inserted new checklists and guides (such as ways to minimize and monitor for potential fidelity problems—Chapter 13).
• Revised the chapter “Writing Evaluation Proposals, Reports, and Journal Articles” to give it less of an academic slant. There’s new material on writing
executive summaries and considerations in planning and writing evaluation
reports for agencies.
• Deleted the chapter on Goal Attainment Scalin
Companies looking to gain greater insight into the success of their corporate citizenship initiatives are turning to the logic model, a tool that accounts for both business and social impact. By bringing this evaluative framework to bear on future initiatives, corporate citizenship managers can link activities and inputs with short- and long-term outcomes to create meaningful change for both participants and the company. In this hands-on workshop, you will be introduced to the logic model and how to apply it to your corporate citizenship programs to show impact.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. Which Agency Makes the Strongest Case to
a Funder?
Nonprofit A
• Your funding will help us to
meet this important need.
• We have been doing it for
17 years and we are really
good at it!
• 173 people received
services in FY2014.
Nonprofit B
• Your funding will help us to
meet this important need.
• We use a rigorous program
evaluation process to
ensure that every dollar is
spent wisely and leads to
the greatest impact.
• Our program/evaluation is
based on a proven method,
the logic model. Here is our
plan…

4. Three Myths About Program Planning
1. The right time to plan a program is when you are
writing a grant proposal.
2. Program planning is a luxury most nonprofits don’t
have time for.
3. We can wing it and it will still turn out well.
4
5. What’s Different About Program Planning Today?
Accountability and Outcome Measures
• What gets measured gets done.
• If you don’t measure results, you can’t tell success
from failure.
• If you can’t see success, you can’t reward it.
• If you can’t reward success, you’re probably
rewarding failure.
6. • If you can’t see success, you
can’t learn from it.
• If you can’t recognize
failure, you can’t correct it.
• If you can demonstrate
results, you can win public
support and…raise financial
support for your programs.

12. By including these characteristics within your
logic model you will achieve
We must communicate to others why our
programs are important to them.

15. State the Problem Clearly
• What are the likely consequences if nothing is done
to resolve the problem?
• Describe who is affected by the problem
• Where do they live, work, etc.?
• How are they important to the community?
