Key steps in the evaluation (click on the key steps for further information and products)
1. Develop a performance framework
- Clarify what TC was trying to achieve and HOW it was planning to impact outcomes
- Develop a theory of change for TC (A Theory of Change will link the initiative activities to short and long term outcomes)
- Refine and develop an initial theory of change
- Clarify what high performance means in relationship to the theory of change
- Clarify uncertainties in the TC theory of change
Products and When
- A theory of change report that will include a section on the learning framework;
- Theory of change on the website will also be updated
- To be completed by end of July 2012
2. Develop a learning framework
Identify the types of learning that are of interest to the stakeholders:
- Organizational
- Impacts
- Process
- Landscape of global health
Develop a clear prioritization of the learning questions
Products and When
- A theory of change report that will include a section on the learning framework;
- Theory of change on the website will also be updated
- To be completed by end of July 2012
3. Identify available data and data to be collected
- Match data elements to the questions
Products and When
- A four-page data summary that connects the evaluation questions to the data
