CPF Results Hierarchy – definitions

1

CPF result Definition Remarks:

IMPACT

(Contribute)

Contribution that FAO is expected to make towards national priorities – long terms development changes

Derived from Gvt priorities/objectives

OUTCOME3-5

outcomes (Attribute)

Measurable uptake and use of FAOs outputs (products and services) within the CPF time frame. What changes do we see in individuals and organizations applying FAOs outputs…learning

Challenge: Find indicator to measure change and contribute to higher level indicators and is consistent with output/project indicators

OUTPUTS3 outputs = 1

outcome(Deliver)

Significant and measurable result/ deliverable of FAOs activities in the country

SMART RESULTS

Specific in terms of the nature and scope of achievements and changes sought, the target groups and geographical area etc.

(should also reflect only one and not multiple results in one single statement)

Measurable: measurable quantitatively and/or qualitatively; data will be available when needed within the time period

Achievable and time-bound in CPF period with the resources available

Relevant to national priorities and FAO’s mandate; substantial, necessary and sufficient

TIPs on formulating Capacity Development

outcomes and indicators at the level of

IndividualsOrganizations

Enabling environment

Capacity development OUTCOME statements should reflect

• HOW will outputs contribute to the intended changes of the key actors or in organizational practices in the national system.

• WHAT are the potential changes in the medium-term for the enabling environment, organizations or individual practices

• WHICH CAPACITIEs (individual, organizational, enabling environment) will need to be developed to allow the change

Individual level: CD outcomes and indicators

Outcome describes if individuals (e.g. farmers, local staff, food producers) are applying and using the knowledge acquired.

Indicators (examples):• N. of farmers (or fishermen) who

changed their practices, behavior• N. of staff following new standards• N. of food producers who apply

the new knowledge to increase food production

• Outcomes describes whether organizations are delivering their services, accomplishing their mandates or performing more efficiently.

• Indicators (examples):– Number of communities that can

develop an action plan– Number of extension units in the

country delivery their services effectively

– Improved management practices (e.g. M&E system)

– Improved information sharing among the organizations

Organizational level: CD outcomes and indicators

• Outcome: state whether the policy, legislative or institutional framework allow implementation of a change process.

• Indicators (examples): – New policies, plans and programes adopted– New policies and strategies implemented

Enabling environment: CD outcomes and indicators

HOW TO DEFINE CPF OUTPUTS AND OUTCOMES -

checklist

• Checklist: Six criteria for good result statementsGroup work: defining outcome and outputs

• How to define risks and assumptionsGroup work: defining risks and assumptions of CPF

Is the result defined on the right level (outputs - outcome)?

Is the result as clear as possible?

Does the result express only a single idea?

Does the result – to the extent possible - explicitly describe WHAT is the change and WHO is benefiting from the change?

Does the result express a change rather than a process?

Is the result as specific as possible?

CHECK-LIST A few criteria to assess/define CPF results*

CRITERION 1:

Is the CPF result defined on the right level (outputs vs. outcome)?

REMARK ON CAPACITY-BUILDING:

Someone has (improved) capacity to do something different or better- > CPF output, not outcome

Example: “Ministry of Environment has the capacity to monitor protected areas”

Example: “Government is better able to formulate gender-sensitive policies”

Someone actually does something different or better- > CPF outcome

Example: “Ministry of Environment effectively monitors protected areas”

Example: “Government formulates policies which are sensitive to gender”

similar logic applies to „having access to …“

CRITERION 2:

Does the CPF result express only a single idea?

“More and better skilled youth and women have decent job opportunities”

if more than a single idea is captured in a result (‘compound result’), it tends to:

distort the clear, logical linkages within the results chain makes monitoring and reporting more complex and

cumbersome can include different levels of results in one result statement

look out for dangerous phrases like ‘through’, ‘for’, ‘and’, ‘in order to’, ‘which contribute to’, ‘with a focus on’

-> consider revising and narrowing down to a single idea, or

-> consider splitting up into more than 1 result

CRITERION 6:

Is the CPF result as specific as possible?

ask the following

questions:

specify: Example

INITIAL OUTCOME:

More and better trained students graduate

By how much?

+ quantity Number of graduates increased from 50.000 to 145.000

What kind of change?

+ quality The number of graduates passing standard exams has increased from 50.000 to 145.000

By when? + time frame By 2016, the number of graduates passing standard exams has increased from 50.000 to 145.000

For whom? + target group

By 2016, the number of graduates from lower income families passing standard exams has increased from 50.000 to 145.000 in year three of project

Where? + location MORE SPECIFIC OUTCOME:By 2016, the number of graduates from lower income families passing standard exams in northern and north-eastern regions has increased from 50.000 to 145.000

CRITERION 6:

Is the CPF result as specific as possible?

ask the following

questions:

specify: Example

INITIAL CPF OUTCOME : Improved nutritional status of vulnerable groups

By how much? + quantity reduced from 9% to 7%

What kind of change?

+ quality acute malnutrition

By when? + time frame by 2016

For whom? + target group vulnerable groups = children under 5 with acute malnutrition

Where? + location in Northern Country Undafistan

MORE SPECIFIC UNDAF OUTCOME:By 2016, the proportion of children under 5 with acute malnutrition in Northern Undafistan has been reduced from 9% to 7%

Is the result defined on the right level (outputs - outcome)?

Is the result as clear as possible?

Does the result express only a single idea?

Does the result – to the extent possible - explicitly describe right-holders and duty-bearers?

Does the result express a change rather than a process?

Is the result as specific as possible?

CHECK-LIST Six criteria how to assess/define CPF results*

*or: SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-Bound)

Example of CPF outcome and indicators:

Outcome 3.2: Policies, regulations and legal issues addressed to promote competitive agro-enterprise development among smallholder farmers and small and medium scale enterprises. (G01)

Indicators: • By 2015, GoN initiated policy reforms to help small producers to

increase value addition and participate in changing markets (Contribution to OR Indicator G01P2 /01)

• By 2015, No. programmes/ projects where policies, regulations, and laws relating to agribusiness are being enforced (Contribution to OR Indicator G01P2 /01)

Linkages between CPF and UNDAF

1

Ensure logical link between CPF and UNDAF results: • CPF impact coincides with UNDAF outcomes• CPF outcomes contribute to UNDAF outputs • CPF outputs are incorporated as activities in UNDAF action plan

Apply flexibly, ONE size may not fit all situations

aim to engage resource partners on – who may fund a % of the CPF, or wish to see a project packaged around a particular CPF outcome
