  1. Monitoring and Evaluation:Frameworks

  2. Learning Objectives At the end of the session, participants will be able to: • Identify and differentiate between conceptual frameworks, results and logical frameworks, and logic models • Design goals and objectives for specific intervention programs • Design frameworks for specific intervention programs • Discuss how frameworks are used for M&E planning

  3. Module Outline • Review components of an M&E Plan • Introduction to frameworks • Conceptual Frameworks • Goals and objectives • Results and Logical Frameworks • Logic models • Exercises developing frameworks • Interface between frameworks and M&E planning • Work on group project

  4. Why are frameworks useful? Designing frameworks assists to develop: • Clearly understood program/project goals and measurable, long-term, short-term, and intermediate objectives • Clearly-defined relationships between program/project inputs, processes, outputs, and outcomes, and between program/project activities and the external context (environmental factors) • Sound implementation and M&E plans

  5. Types of Frameworks • Conceptual Frameworks • Results Frameworks • Logical Frameworks • Logic Models

  6. Conceptual Frameworks(a.k.a. research or theoretical frameworks) Diagrams that identify and illustrate the relationships between all relevant systemic, organizational, individual, or other salient factors that may influence program/project operation and the successful achievement of program or project goals. M&E Purpose: • To show where program fits into wider context • To clarify assumptions about causal relationships • To show how program components will operate to influence outcomes • To guide identification of indicators • To guide impact analysis (causal pathways) Similar frameworks: • Proximate Determinants

  8. Conceptual Frameworks National Tuberculosis (TB) Program • External Factors • Demographic: • (age, gender) • Socio-economic:(education, occupation) • Environmental: • (war, weather) TB infection • Health Systems (DOTS) • Availability • Access • Utilization • Case Detection • TB Morbidity • Prevalence • Incidence • HIV co-infection • MDR-TB TBmortality • Program Factors • Political commitment • Donor involvement • National TB program • Co-morbidity • HIV • Malnutrition • Alcoholism • Diabetes • TB Knowledge • Stigma • Treatable • Symptoms Source: MEASURE Evaluation 2004 (draft)

  9. Child malnutrition, death and disability Inadequate Disease dietary intake Insufficient access to food Inadequate maternal & child care practices Poor water/sanitation & inadequate health services Quantity & quality of actual resources - human, economic and organizational – and the way they are controlled Potential Resources: environment, technology, people Conceptual Frameworks Causes of malnutrition in society Outcomes Immediate causes Underlying causes at household/ family level Basic causes at societal level Source: UNICEF, State of the World’s Children, 1998

  10. Activity • Get into groups of 4 or 5 • Develop a conceptual framework for utilization of family planning/maternal and child health services • Identify factors that influence health-service utilization • Arrange factors into a conceptual framework • After 30 minutes, a member of each group will share the framework with all participants

  11. Goals and Objectives • Goal: a broad statement of a desired, long-term outcome of the program • Objectives: statements of desired, specific, realisticand measurable program results • SMART • Specific: identifies concrete events or actions that will take place • Measurable: quantifies the amount of resources, activity, or change to be expended and achieved • Appropriate: logically relates to the overall problem statement and desired effects of the program • Realistic: Provides a realistic dimension that can be achieved with the available resources and plans for implementation • Time-based: specifies a time within which the objective will be achieved Source: GAP 2003

  12. Goals and Objectives National AIDS Committee (NAC) 2005 Strategic Plan • Goal: Prevent the spread of HIV epidemic and minimize its impact on nation by 2009 • Objective 1: Reduction of HIV prevalence in nation • Objective 2:Improved health and quality of life of people infected & affected by HIV/AIDS • Objective 3:Strengthened capacity of NAC and stakeholders to respond to the HIV/AIDS epidemic at all levels through improved research, M&E and improved management and coordination

  13. Child malnutrition, death and disability Inadequate Disease dietary intake Insufficient access to food Inadequate maternal & child care practices Poor water/sanitation & inadequate health services Quantity & quality of actual resources - human, economic and organizational – and the way they are controlled Potential resources: environment, technology, people Goals and Objectives: Activity Outcomes Immediate causes Underlying causes at household/ family level Basic causes at societal level Source: UNICEF, State of the World’s Children, 1998

  14. Results Frameworks Diagrams that identify steps or levels of results and illustrate the causal relationships linking all levels of a program’s objectives Purposes: • Provides a clarified focus on the causal relationships that connect incremental achievement of results to the comprehensive program impact • Clarifies project or program mechanics and factors’ relationships that suggest ways and means of objectively measuring the achievement of desired ends Other terms used: • Strategic frameworks

  19. Logical Frameworks Present a standardized summary of the project and its logic. Purposes: • Summarizes what the project intends to do and how • Summarizes key assumptions • Summarizes outputs and outcomes that will be monitored and evaluated Other terms used: • Logframe matrix

  20. Logical Frameworks

  21. Logical Frameworks Taskforce on Communicable Disease Controlin the Region X: Tuberculosis

  22. Logical Frameworks Taskforce on Communicable Disease Controlin the Barents and Baltic Sea Regions: Tuberculosis

  23. Logical Frameworks Taskforce on Communicable Disease Controlin the Barents and Baltic Sea Regions: Tuberculosis(only one output and related activity shown here)

  24. Activity • Return to small groups from previous activity • Develop goals and objectives for a program aimed at increasing utilization of FP/MCH health services • Develop a results or logical framework for this program • In 45 minutes, a member of each group will share the goals, objectives, and framework

  25. Logic Models Diagrams that identify and illustrate the linear relationships flowing from program inputs, processes, outputs, and outcomes. Inputs or resources affect processes or activities which produce immediate results or outputs, ultimately leading to longer-term or broader results, or outcomes. Purposes: • Provides a streamlined interpretation of planned use of resources and desired ends • Clarifies project/program assumptions about linear relationships between key factors relevant to desired ends Other terms used: • M&E Frameworks, Logical Frameworks

  26. Logic Models: Training INPUT PROCESS OUTPUT OUTCOME IMPACT Develop clinical training curriculum Conduct training events Practitioners trained in new clinical techniques Increase in clients served by (newly) trained providers Declining morbidity levels in target population

  27. Logic Models Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) Problem Statement:HIV infection rates continue to rise, underscoring the importance for people to know their serostatus, develop personalized risk-reduction strategies, and access care and treatment services. OUTPUTS INPUTS PROCESSES OUTCOMES IMPACTS Financial Resources Supervision and training for VCT personnel Clients (HIV+ and -) develop and adhere to personalized HIV risk-reduction Risk behaviors decreased HIV transmission rates decreased People know their HIV status Demand for Services Provide pre-test counseling Increase in care, prevention, and treatment services for HIV+, HIV-, and discordant couples Infrastructure HIV+ Clients develop and adhere to personalized HIV care, support, and treatment plans Provide HIV testing HIV incidence decreased VCT MIS** HIV+ people are referred to appropriate services Provide post-test counseling VCT protocols, guidelines, and training documents** Refer HIV+ clients to appropriate services (PMTCT, care and support, treatment) HIV morbidity & mortality decreased Counseling and Testing Personnel* Health outcomes of HIV + improve Client records are available Continuity of care is available HIV test kits Maintain patient records Program and services are improved Service reports are produced Referral system for prevention & Tx services** Complete reporting requirements
