A Logic Model is a planning, learning and management tool that shows how program and organisational activities lead to desired results and change. Logic Models are important as they explain your Theory of Change, help you plan and develop an evaluation strategy. They support you to test your assumptions and theory concerning how to solve a particular problem or issue.
Logic Models engage and energise those managing and implementing activities, and are used to gain the support of funders and grant makers. They are use to monitor activities and determine how efficient and effective they are.
Using a Theory of Change and Logic Models in your planning, monitoring and evaluation work will help you understand your activities better; communicate more effectively with your team, funders and donors; report more efficiently on what works and why; and improve your success and social impact.
This course explains in detail who uses Logic Models, the definitions and how to create your own Logic Model step by step. It provides an overview of how the Logic Model is the foundation work needed before you begin an evaluation.
