💡 The Logic Model provides a step-by-step guide for both project planning and evaluation:
- Planning Phase:
- Identify and clarify project goals, inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes.
- Establish logical connections between each component to form a cause-and-effect pathway.
- Ensure that the activities directly contribute to the intended outcomes and align with the project's overall purpose.
- Use the Logic Model as a communication tool to share the project's design and strategy with stakeholders and potential funders.
- Implementation Phase:
- Use the Logic Model to guide the execution of project activities and monitor progress.
- Regularly assess whether the project is achieving its intended outputs and outcomes.
- Identify any deviations from the planned activities and outcomes and make necessary adjustments to improve effectiveness.
- Evaluation Phase:
- During project evaluation, compare actual results with the anticipated outcomes outlined in the Logic Model.
- Assess the effectiveness and impact of the project by analyzing the degree to which the outcomes were achieved.
- Use evaluation findings to improve future project design and implementation.
