  1. Peacebuilding Design, Monitoring & Evaluation Training Theory of Change Approach (TOC) 29 November 2011

  2. Process of Monitoring and Evaluating a Project • Take one project for participation • Unpack the project into the Hierarchy of Results • Identify TOCs • Identify the intended changes from the TOC • Identify indicators • Data Collection • Analysis

  3. First Step – Conflict Analysis • TOC cannot stand alone. They must be compared in relation to the context. • In this scenario, we will not be doing a conflict analysis

  4. Step Two – Hierarchy of Results (or Results Chain) • Take a project and unpack it. • Create a results chain, you must articulate the TOC behind these intended activities, outputs, outcomes • Work from the bottom up – activities at the bottom up to the Outcomes at the top.

  5. Results Chain or Hierarchy of Results

  6. Where the TOC sits • Activity • Result • TOC

  7. Hierarchy of Results

  8. Pathway of change – Youth as Agents of Conflict / Peace

  9. Theory of Change statement • OECD DAC definition: “We believe that by doing X (action) successfully, we will produce Y (movement towards peace)” • If we do______ then ____ will result because ________.

  10. Theory of Change statement • If we provide training to Nepali youth in six districts on non-violent conflict resolution and we engage communities on the importance of the youth’s role in negotiated resolution then the youth will be able to resolve local conflicts in these districtsbecausethey will have the skills necessary and the community will value their support.

  11. Tips for successfully creating strong TOCs • Be clear in your language • Be specific. Do not use words like: Capacity Building, strengthening, links, training, engage • State specifically what the “capacity building action is” • Remember - TOC should state why you choose a particular group, for a particular action. • Someone else should be able to read it and know what you intend as a result of your action.

  12. Research Methodology

  13. Defining project TOC and Indicators vs. Choosing from prepared lists • Difficulties with project defining own: indicators could be insufficient; requires additional information collection; and tension with time, capacity, etc. • Positive about defining own: contextualised, specific, list confusion, avoids ticking the box, etc.

  14. Major learning, so far • POSITIVE • Partners were cooperative and supportive • Eager to revise TOCs and project design • Created a community of practise • RTM - Looked to support other countries • Have used TOC in new project design – USAID submission and WV NEGATIVE • No common understanding of language –(outputs, etc.) • Most peacebuilding projects had little or no peacebuilding built into them • Conflict Analysis was not done, incomplete or programme design did not take it into account. • M&E structures did not exist
