 LOGICAL FRAMEWORK |
| A logical framework (commonly known as a logframe) links activities results, purpose and objectives of a programme, project or policy in a hierarchical form. For each of the programme, project or policy components, the evaluator identifies the performance indicators that are required, the sources of information for each indicator and the assumptions. Logframes are designed to clarify the objectives of a programme, project or policy and identify the casual links between inputs, outcomes, and impacts. In its most basic form, a logframe is a matrix that summarizes in concise language the critical elements of a programme, project or policy. The approach addresses key questions in a methodical manner using casual logic.
Logframes are used for a variety of purposes which include:
