The LOGFRAME

The Logframe is a simple but very powerfultool to Summarizethe Scope& Key BuildingBlocksof a proposed Project in an easy-to-understand, structurally-interrelated format.

Logframe is used initially to Plan & DesignProjects.

Subsequently, it provides a baseline reference

for Briefings, Program Monitoring, ProgressReporting and Evaluation

Cluster of actions required to produce each of the

log frame outputs

Each output should have one activity cluster

Each cluster should be a summary of the 5-10activities needed to produce the desired output

Linked to but separate from the Gant Chart, WorkPlan, or Detailed Implementation Plan

ASSESSING ACTIVITIES

Activities summarize the actions needed to

accomplish each project output

Relationship between inputs and activities is

reasonable

Vertical logic among Activities, Outputs,

Purposes, and Goal is realistic as a whole.

Activities identify action required for managingprocesses stated in the Monitoring and Evaluation
