Outcome Mapping & Its Essence
A participatory planning, and M&E tool which emphasises 3 concepts:
• Outcomes = Targeted changes in attitude, knowledge, practices, and behaviour at stakeholder levels.
Ø Changes in personal and organisational levels
Ø Targeted changes contribute to impact (not attribution)
• Targeted stakeholders or Boundary Partners (BP)

Outcome Mapping & Its Essence
• Social and organisational learning.

Goal outcome
I will change gradually in capability / behavior. All depend on my intention
BP BP
The goal is my
response, I want it
My goal is to increase BPs’ capability,
encourage BPs to change their behavior. I realize my
own limitation

Project Overview
Ecosystem Approaches to the Better Management of Zoonotic Emerging
Infectious Diseases in the Southeast Asia Region (EcoZD)
• Funded by International Development Research Centre, Canada (IDRC)
• 5-year project implemented by International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI)
• Goals: capacity building & evidence-based knowledge
• 8 Research & outreach teams in 6 countries.
![Page 6: Lessons Learned from the application of Outcome Mapping to an IDRC EcoHealth project: A double-acting participatory process](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060117/5586d7aad8b42a524a8b4640/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Rationale for the use of OM
OM process compliments & reinforces:
• EcoZD’s goal: capacity building
• EcoHealth Concept.
ü Non-linear, iterative process
ü Systems Thinking ü Transdisciplinary
collaboration ü Participatory methods ü Equity (social justice) ü Knowledge to action ü Sustainability

The Process of Developing Outcomes

3 Stages of OM

The Process of Developing Outcomes
Layer 1: Relationship between EcoZD project & 8 teams to influence teams’ changes in knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP).
A Two-layer process

Students
Para professional
Layer 1 Layer 2
Layer 2: Relationship between teams & their Boundary Partners (BPs) to support BPs’ changes in KAP.

The Process of Developing Outcomes
PMs = a set of gradual development of Boundary Partners
(BPs) towards expected outcomes. PMs are collaboratively
developed and mutually agreed by the project & BPs.
PMs - not static & respond to project’s changing situation.
Progress Markers (PMs)

OM process in both layers accentuates ‘Cycle of Learning’
Internal exchange of
info. & understanding
ParBcipatory Process with
BPs
Adapt & Plan interacBon
• Understanding purposes • Analysing Stakeholders
• Progress Makers development & confirmaIon
• Self-‐assessment • Feedback from
Boundary Partners
• Using Progress Markers as a framework
• Improving strategies based on feedbacks received
The Process of Developing Outcomes

As a part of ‘Cycle of Learning’
Assessing Outcomes
ParBcipatory Process with
BPs
• Progress Makers development & confirmation
• Self-assessment & evidence given by Boundary Partners
• Feedback from Boundary Partners

Assessing Outcomes
Information from self-assessment and feedback from BPs are used in strategic planning.
AdapBng & Planning interacBon
• Using Progress Markers as a framework
• Improving strategies based on feedbacks received

Assessing Outcomes
Layer 1 & Layer 2 Progress Markers (PMs)
Layer 1: EcoZD – Teams • Understanding and applying
EcoHealth principles.
• Communicating research findings.
• Networking & policy engagement.
Key themes of PMs:
Layer 2: Teams – BPs • BPs’ improved understanding/
specific knowledge.
• BPs’ changes in practices.
• BPs’ communication of particular knowledge/ practices to communities.

Layer 2 Outcomes
![Page 20: Lessons Learned from the application of Outcome Mapping to an IDRC EcoHealth project: A double-acting participatory process](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060117/5586d7aad8b42a524a8b4640/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Conclusion
« OM is used as a framework for the process of developing outcomes and also a formative reflection which contributes to project management.
« Challenges faced by implementation of this process: 1) subjectivity of the tool, 2) seen as a seperate part of the project, 3) resources, especially time & skills of personnel in the teams.
