swisspeace course: Theories of Change in Fragile Contexts
Theories of change help aid workers and peacebuilders to make their programs more effective, but they are rarely used to their full potential. Creating a detailed logic of intervention helps to identify gaps in programming, highlight assumptions that need to be tested and provide a sound base for strategic choices that can increase impact. This course provides the conceptual background for working with theories of change in fragile contexts and then focuses on how ‘good’ theories of change can be developed and used by practitioners to gain an in-depth understanding of the change their programs trigger.
In this course participants will:
- learn to understand the concepts of theories of change and the basics to work with them
- build theories of change on different levels (project, program and organizational level)
- train their skills with practical exercises
- get insights on different uses of theories of change for design, monitoring and evaluation
- develop ideas on using theories of change as a tool to foster organizational learning and grapple with complexity
- exchange experiences and become part of a peacebuilding communitty
Course faculty:
- Dr. Stefan Bächtold, Program Officer Analysis & Impact Program, swisspeace
- Roland Dittli, Head Analysis & Impact Program, swisspeace
