Logframe Intensive: Skills-building workshop
This intensive is a skills-building workshop focused on logframes (LFA) for students, practitioners or transitional staff seeking to master this difficult tool.
Logframes are the single most widely used project monitoring tool in both humanitarian and international development aid. Although essential, many people struggle to master the logframe analysis format. This intensive provides hands-on training to work with you to learn the tool. Unlike pre-recorded trainings, this workshop will be real-time and reactive to the unique challenges those in the workshop are facing. You will learn to build a logframe from a theory of change, from a project narrative, to align indicators and to test the logic of an analysis in a interactive lesson.
Registration price includes admission to a 3 hour workshop, a recording of that workshop for later use, and a set of downloadable handouts, further reading, and 'next step' suggestions for attendees wishing to continue their learning.
This is a pop-up and will run at capacity of 12 max. attendees. Upon purchase, you will receive an email welcoming you to the workshop and confirming the date of the next online pop-up. Should you be unable to attend, the next pop-up will be offered to you.
