Setting Indicators Measuring Progress
- 1. 2020 ProposalWriting Stetting up Indicators What is an indicator? An indicator is a specific, observable and measurable characteristic that can be used to show changes or progress a programme is making toward achieving a specific outcome. Each outcome should have at least one indicator or more 1 (Gage and Dunn, 2009)
- 2. 2020 ProposalWriting Stetting up Indicators Characteristics of a good indicator • Valid • Reliable • Precise • Measurable • Timely • Programmatically important 2 (Gage and Dunn, 2009)
- 3. 2020 ProposalWriting Types of Indicators • Output indicators illustrate the change related directly to the activities undertaken within the Project (e.g. number of women got grants to start their SMEs) • Outcome indicators relate to change that is demonstrated as a result of the project interventions in the medium-to-longer term (e.g. number of women established their successful SMEs.) • Impact indicators measure the long-term affect of the project interventions (e.g. percentage of income increase for the beneficiaries families.) 3
- 4. 2020 ProposalWriting Implementation Methodology • How will you approach the implementation? • What will you do to achieve your outcomes/objectives? You can think of the methods or activities component as answering these questions: 1. What are the main stages/components (if any)? 2. What are the specific activities and sub-activities? 3. Why is this the best way to accomplish your outcomes/objectives? 4. Who is responsible for each task? 5. What resources do you need? 6. Who are the participants and where do they come from? 7. When will these activities occur, and over what time period? 8. …………….. 4
- 5. 2020 ProposalWriting Implementation Stages - Components • Stages: Are the phases of implementation over a period of time within the whole intervention and characterized by specific benchmarks. • Components: Are a group of similar/related activities forming one package with the intervention. 5
- 6. 2020 ProposalWriting Example: Youth Empowerment Project Summary Stage I: Setting off the program Stage II: Training Stage III: Placement, Follow up & Impact Assessment Comp. 1: Baseline Analysis and Program design Comp.5: Support, Guidance & advising Comp.6: Impact Assessment Comp.4: Placement Comp.2:Promotion& Networking Comp.3: Training
- 7. 2020 ProposalWriting Implementation Activities – Sub-activities • Activities What will do to fulfill your outputs towards the intervention outcomes/objectives. • Sub-activities (tasks) Minor tasks within the broad activity ex. preparing training materials with the training activities 7
- 8. 2020 ProposalWriting Inputs • Inputs are the primary demands to deliver an activity or a sub-activity (tasks). • E.g. for a training activity, inputs are: training materials, trainer, training venue, refreshment, training tools and aids…etc. Quizz 8
- 9. 2020 ProposalWriting Example: Intervention- Women Economical Empowerment Empowering Training Material develop. Inputs TOT Inputs Training ……. Inputs Granting Evaluat. BPs and selection Inputs Granting requir. Inputs Granting ……. Inputs 9 Comp. Activit. Sub-a. Inputs

Hinweis der Redaktion
- There should be at least one indicator for each outcome. The indicator should be focused, clear and specific. The change measured by the indicator should represent progress that the programme hopes to make. An indicator should be defined in precise, unambiguous terms that describe clearly and exactly what is being measured. Where practical, the indicator should give a relatively good idea of the data required and the population among whom the indicator is measured. Indicators do not specify a particular level of achievement -- the words “improved”, “increased”, or “decreased” do not belong in an indicator. UN WOMEN http://www.endvawnow.org/en/articles/336-indicators.html
- Characteristics of good indicators Valid: accurate measure of a behaviour, practice, task that is the expected output or outcome of the intervention Reliable: consistently measurable over time, in the same way by different observers Precise: operationally defined in clear terms Measurable: quantifiable using available tools and methods Timely: provides a measurement at time intervals relevant and appropriate in terms of programme goals and activities Programmatically important: linked to the programme or to achieving the programme objectives (Gage and Dunn, 2009)
- Output indicators illustrate the change related directly to the activities undertaken within the programme (e.g. percentage of traditional leaders in community x who completed the training on international human rights standards related to violence against women and girls whose knowledge improved.) Outcome indicators relate to change that is demonstrated as a result of the programme interventions in the medium-to-longer term (e.g. the number of decisions in the informal justice system of community x related to violence against women that reflect a human rights-based approach.) Impact indicators measure the long-term affect of programme interventions (e.g. the prevalence of violence against women and girls in community x.) An important issue that needs to be resolved in order to monitor project progress is how to define success. Commonly, organizations are able to track how many events they have held, and how many people have participated (outputs), but not how people have changed their attitudes or behaviours as a result (outcomes), especially over time.
- We haven't gotten to the budget yet--that's when we'll detail the costs. Methods What will you do to achieve your outcomes? You can think of the methods or activities component as answering these questions: 1. What are the specific tasks? 2. Why is this the best way to accomplish your outcomes? 3. Who is responsible for each task? 4. What resources do you need? 5. Who are the participants and where do they come from? 6. When will these activities occur, and over what time period? People=Staffing In the staffing section you tell the funder who you will need to do the work, including full- or part-time paid staff, consultants, volunteers, or any combination of these. Project staffing will have likely come up in your methods section, but here you’ll devote a little more attention to qualifications and who’s doing what. Cast of characters Paid staff: Need to hire people? How much time will existing staff spend on the project? Consultants: Technically not staff (consultants are not employees) but may play critical roles. Volunteers: Include key volunteers without whom you couldn't do the work.
