Improving your Results Frameworks Workshop
Date: Wednesday 22 November, 2.00pm – 4.00pm
Location: Online via Zoom
This workshop is part of IDEA’s support on the Irish Aid Global Citizenship Education Grants Round. It is the second of two distinct and complementary workshops on ‘Results Frameworks for Global Citizenship Education’ that we are running this year, both led by Susan Gallwey.
This session is focused on supporting those who are familiar with Results Frameworks and have begun work on the Results Framework for their application. This runs on Wednesday 22 November, 2.00 – 4.00pm, Online.
This session will also be a good follow-on session for anyone attending the ‘Results Frameworks for Beginners’ workshop on 16 November.
Participants are invited to prepare for this session as follows:
a) Those participants from organisations who have previously submitted a Results Framework for Development Education/Global Citizenship Education to Irish Aid should be familiar with their existing Results Framework. Before the event they will be asked to share (with the trainer and IDEA) an outcome and associated indicators that is working well and also identify an outcome and associated indicators that posed some challenges.
b) Those participants from organisations who have NOT previously submitted a Results Framework for Development Education/Global Citizenship Education to Irish Aid and/or people who are new to Results Frameworks should attend the introductory session on 16 November Results Frameworks for Beginners.
IDEA provides support for members - and spaces for members to support one another - in applying for Irish Aid Global Citizenship Education Grants. This training and support is free of charge to all and offered online. As in recent years, this year we also invite any other actors who are not yet members of IDEA to these training events.
The Results Framework Toolkit being used for this training is available for download. If you would like a hard copy of the Results Framework Toolkit sent to you, please register by Tuesday 7 November and provide us with your postal address.
