Has your theory of change changed?

It is important to continually review the design of your policy and/or programme. It’s never too early to start reflecting and refining.

Activity

Take a look at the Theory of Change (ToC) you created in Week 1 and reflect on some of the new aspects covered this week. 

• People centred and co-design approaches
• Factors highlighted through your situation analysis
• How you might measure change
• Effective implementation
• Strategic alignment and coherence

You can also start thinking more specifically about how policy, strategy and governance may influence your work. The following questions may help:

• What are some of the key policy components to include?
• Are there any specific local policy requirements, either at organisation or national level?
• Any areas where policy might be useful or an existing policy utilised?
• How will this impact your implementation methodology?

Update your theory of change accordingly and share any interesting reflections you have with others on the discussion board.
