6 The complex challenges of monitoring and evaluating outcomes

7 Inspired by the Outcome Mapping methodology. A tool for practitioners operating in situations of considerable uncertainty to monitor and evaluate the social change results they are achieving. Outcome Harvesting ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

8 Outcome Harvesting Developed since 2003 by me and my colleagues Barbara Klugman, Claudia Fontes, Fe Briones Garcia, Gabriela Sánchez, Goele Scheers, Heather Britt, Jennifer Vincent, Julie Lafreniere, Juliette Majot, Marcie Mersky, Martha Nuñez, Mary Jane Real, Natalia Ortiz and Wolfgang Richert. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

9 1. International social change networks ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

10 International development funders ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

11 Over 300 networks and associations, NGOs, community- based organisations, research institutes, and government agencies on all seven continents. Identifying and reporting 2,500+ changes they have influenced. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

12 What did all of these organisations have in common?

15 Why?

16 Personal reflection In one minute each, explain to the person next to you what you understand as “complexity”. Please hold your reflections and allow me to explain how complexity is understood in Outcome Harvesting. Then, we will close the circle with the Questions & Answers. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

25 Exercise #1 ➤ Now we will begin to use the simulated case. The idea is for you to imagine that FundNow described in this page and a half profile is an NGO in your country. You have the power to decide what to do in order to achieve its multi-annual objectives. ➤ First, however, you want to assess the degree of complexity you face. So please classify on this sheet each objective on a scale from 1 for very certain (or simple) to 7 for highly uncertain (or complex) ➤ It is a matter of judgement. There are really no right or wrong answers. ➤ And only rank the objectives for which you feel comfortable. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

44 Personal reflection Always assuming that FundNow is an organisation in your country, write down who you consider to be its stakeholders. We will come back to your list in the exercise. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

45 1. Design the harvest to meet needs It is tempting to collect data on everything a project, programme or organisations does and achieves, but it is not practical. “At IDRC, if you cannot identify and articulate the primary intended users and uses of the evaluation you should not conduct the evaluation. Unused evaluation is a waste of precious human and financial resources.” ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

46 Primary intended users Principal intended uses ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

47 Primary intended users Those people who need the harvest or its findings in order to make decisions or take actions. The users are actively involved. The harvester and her commissioner agree together who are the primary users, and then what are their principal uses. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

48 Principal uses There can be use for the process itself of harvesting As well as for the findings of the harvest. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

49 Typical process uses Improve communication and foment common understanding Strengthen the implementation of a project or programme because “what is measured tends to be what is gets done” Increase participation and ownership Foster a learning culture ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

50 Common uses of findings Inform what was done and is being achieved Take decisions to modify the model or initiative Plan future work Evaluate the performance ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

51 Users vs. Audience Those people who need the harvest or its findings in order to make decisions or take actions. The users are actively involved. Users are different from the broader audience of stakeholders who may see and react to the harvest’s results. The audience is passively interested in the harvest. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

52 Exercise #2 With the same person with whom you had just had the personal reflection, exemplify whom you both consider would be FundNow’s users of an Outcome Harvest and what might be their uses? Who would be the audience? ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

53 FundNow Users vs. Audience Primary users: They will be involved in decision-making through all six steps of the harvest Audience: They may be informed periodically of progress but not necessarily. They may be consulted on how to use the findings but they are not responsible for the use. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

54 Questions & Answers Do you have any questions about primary users and principal uses of an Outcome Harvest and why it is important to distinguish them from the broader audience for the harvest findings and other stakeholders? ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

55 Agenda ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ 9:15Introductions 9:30The complex challenges of monitoring and evaluating outcomes 10:45Coffee 11:00Primary users and principal uses 12:00Useable Outcome Harvesting questions 13:00Lunch 14:00Identifying and formulating outcomes 15:30Coffee 15:45Substantiation, analysis, interpretation and use 16:30Summing up 16:45Evaluation ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

56 Personal reflection If you were to evaluate FundNow, in a sentence write one evaluation question that you would consider important for the use(s) of the primary user(s). You will now use your question either to further craft it, or completely re-write it, as we see the purpose of useable questions in Outcome Harvesting. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

57 Primary intended users Principal intended uses Useable Outcome Harvesting questions ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

58 Evaluation findings Adapted from: A Practical Guide for Engaging Stakeholders in Developing Evaluation Questions, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, 2009 Useable harvest questions RelevantCrediblePriority ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

59 Useable harvest questions What questions must be answered so that the primary users will be able to make decisions or take other action? For a harvest question to be useable, it must provide both : Information: What data has to be collected? Plus Interpretation: So what does the data mean? ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

60 Example of a What question What were FundNow’s outcomes in 2011-12? We have 12 outcomes in two years! Fantastic. What does it mean? ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

61 Example of a So What question What were FundNow’s outcomes in 2011-12? What is the relative importance of FundNow’s outcomes in 2011-12 for increasing the quantity and quality of the work of women’s organisations in the country? A useable question is an evaluative question ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

62 Exercise #3 In groups of twos, agree a different, useable outcome harvest question for FundNow, always in one sentence. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

63 Actionable (useable) evaluation questions 1. Was the programme—and is it still—needed? How well does it address the most important root causes? Is it still the right solution? 2. How well designed and implemented is the programme? 3. How valuable are the outcomes for [insert impactee group]? 4. What works best for whom, under what conditions, and why/how? 5. How worthwhile was it overall? Or, which parts or aspects of the programme generated the most valuable outcomes for the time, money and effort invested? 6. How sustainable is the impact? How sustainable is the programme itself? Source: Jane Davidson, Actionable Evaluation Basics, RealEvaluation.com, 2012 ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

64 Questions & Answers Do you have any questions about formulating useable “What?” PLUS “So What?” Outcome Harvesting questions? ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

67 Personal reflection For all of you, what makes monitoring and evaluation data credible? I will make a list here on the flip chart. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

68 Primary intended users Principal intended uses Useful Outcome Harvesting questions Credible data ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

69 Select the most credible sources People who personally know who changed and what changed. They give initial authenticity, confidence and credibility to the information you harvest. Thus, Outcome Harvesting is highly participatory. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

71 Exercise #4 Please take five minutes to read this 2012 annual report from FundNow. Then, with the person seated next to you: A. Identify one outcome: Who changed behaviour, relationships, activities, actions, policies or practice? What changed? When did it change? And where? ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net

72 FundNow 2012 Annual Report Feedback from our allies and co-workers about FundNow’s activities in 2012 has been very positive, emphasizing the usefulness of our research publications to inform about the funding challenges and opportunities facing women's organizations in the country. Our research has shown that women's rights organizations have been living in a form of "resist and survive" mode but doing amazing work for the advancement of women's rights. People always mention our online newsletter FundNow as a tool that has helped them to think more strategically about raising funds for their organizations. The preparatory research we did for each one of the13 meetings we convened was greatly appreciated. This year, our innovative research on trends in financing for gender equality and women's organization has been a strongly supportive tool for women’s groups obtaining more and better resources across the country. Based on the collection of "gems" of impact of projects implemented by the grant recipients of central government’s National Fund for MDG3 (referring to the third Millennium Development Goal which is on gender equality), we compiled a report that has been used by gender activists. For example, donors internally to promote resource allocation for gender equality and women's rights. For example, an ad hoc group in the ministry responsible for the National Fund for MDG3 used our compilation in their lobbying internally for the replenishment of the Fund, which resulted in the addition of US$4 million to the Fund in early 2012 and a commitment to launch a new phase of the Fund with US$20 million in 2013. In addition, this year we have successfully organized in two provinces six strategic meetings for women's organizations on provincial resource mobilization. (In addition, we organised t nationally for a total of 13.) These were the first such meetings in those provinces. In one province 5 funders and 18 women's organizations attended and in the other 4 and 12, respectively. The background research we did based on regional surveys in preparation for the meetings was very well received and participants said we were filling a clear gap of information with our findings. Many participants expressed that these meetings are a strategic opportunity to establish new contacts, engage in networking, develop strategies, offer a space for potential donors and grantees to meet and share experiences. Everyone said the meetings enabled them to better understand the context in which both funders and women's organizations operate. The meeting participants also had time to reflect on their work and said these events served as inspiration. All the participants expressed their commitment to work together in the future to guarantee funding for women's organizations in the two provinces. ricardo.wilson-grau@inter.nl.net
