It often happens that a project leader, an association, an NGO, a mission-driven organization, or even an institutional actor is asked to fill out a logical framework.
For many, this document seems long, technical, abstract, or reserved for specialists. Yet, when used properly, it can instead become a very useful tool for clarifying a project, making it understandable, managing it better, and communicating better with partners, funders, or support providers.
That is precisely why Objectif Sciences International is sharing with its more than 3,000 user accounts a free resource offered in partnership with the Geneva Forum.
This resource gives you access to a self-training manual and a simple method for filling out a logical framework in just 45 minutes.
The goal is not to trap you in yet another administrative exercise.
The goal is to help you:
- better understand the logic of your project;
- distinguish its Why, its What / Who, and its How;
- turn an idea that is still vague into a clearer project;
- produce a document that can be used with a contact person, a support provider, a donor, or a funder;
- move more easily toward a stronger project outline.
This method was designed to be useful at different levels:
- individual project;
- association project;
- NGO action;
- impact-driven economic activity;
- collective program;
- public scheme;
- large-scale project.
In other words, whenever a contact person asks you for a logical framework, you can rely on this method to save time, better structure your thinking, and make your project easier to understand.
The manual offered by the Geneva Forum was designed to focus on the essentials, with a simple, quick, and practical progression.
In 45 minutes, it helps you:
- define your project;
- identify its objectives;
- clarify the expected results;
- specify the activities and resources;
- build a first coherent working basis.
