I am Rogers Kanee, from Nigeria. I work with CHAI Nigeria and out mission is to save lives through public Health interventions.

I see theory of change as a systematic tool and holistic approach to problem solving. Through a clearly defined and articulated pathway, that links interventions, immediate gains, intermediate and long-term gains of the interventions evaluated with defined indicators.

Very insightful and precise explanation.

I'm Rogers Kanee.

I worry that my organization might fail to avoid the pitfall of context. Because of it poor spread or coverage across her area of intervention.

To avoid this, I advise we leverage on organizations that has wide coverage to understand the context of the areas of intervention.

This will happen once an organization or company wishes to initiate a new action thru better planning that are different from the previously implemented to acquire change. Such change must results a better outcome.

I am Ms Carol Rotich, a project manager for Enhancing Women Resilience and Empowerment (EWRET) Project
The project reinforced the importance of SNN-BLEC’s strategy to put women’s rights at the center of its Kenya program. The EWRET project focused on four outcomes and achieved concrete results related to:

1. Increased women’s capacities and skills, their expanded roles, and income generation opportunities.
2. Improved management of traditional livelihood assets.
3. Increased local government and community engagement to support livelihood resilience.
4. Increased access to water for human consumption and community horticulture.

The 9-month pilot project reached 240 women and supported more than 240 small businesses. These vibrant businesses enable women to better manage risk and mitigate the impacts from reoccurring drought. Thus Phase 2 of the project is ongoing.Enhancing Women Resilience and Empowerment (EWRET) Project The project reinforced the importance of SNN-BLEC’s strategy to put women’s rights at the center of its Kenya program.

Hello team!

My name is Emmanuel Muthui from Kenya. I am the founder of Nguzohub, a community based organization that empowers youth and women with life, entrepreneurship and digital skills in my community. I come from a very marginalized community in Kilifi County, where education levels are low, unemployment rates are much high than the national average, poverty is high, and girls are more at risk of dropping out of school or get married off at an early age. I wanted to change this by working with youth and women that are more at risk to not accessing better educational and career opportunities.

One of my personal areas of improvement is storytelling. I struggle to structure our stories (as an individual and as an organization) in an easier, authentic, and compelling manner to my audience. I look forward to building those skills through this course and be able to fully communicate our stories as an organization to the world. I look forward to build friendships and partnerships through this course.

You can find Nguzohub on Facebook, Instagram, and X @Nguzohub.

The formulation of a Theory of Change is a crucial component of my strategic approach. I am confident that the insights and skills I will gain from this course will empower me to initiate significant, positive changes within my professional domain.

The goal of theory of change is to help in exploring pathways needed to achieve a long term outcome over a period of time and listed needs or problems of a community.
It helps in addressing the changes one wants to make and the plans and activities intended to be carried out to achieve a desirable outcome

Le processus de la théorie du changement cherche à décrire les activités (interventions) du projet, relier ces activités aux résultats et décrire les raisons pour lesquelles ces activités mènent à ces résultats

My experiences with ICRC have enabled me to develop a Theory of Change that is rooted in principles of collaboration and empowerment. This Theory of Change places emphasis on engaging stakeholders in the process of designing and implementing interventions, empowering local actors to take ownership of their development, and recognizing the importance of data-driven decision making. By creating an environment of collaboration and mutual respect, I hope to create lasting and meaningful impacts in the lives of those in need.

To bring changes, it need to be done a clear assessment and find the area of change need it , have a meaningful strategy which consistent resources and tools address the requirement.

Hi my name is Jackie and I live in the US. I have been interested in learning more about the theory of change process and how that brings teams together with a sense of purpose, and ways to include stakeholders outside of the organization in the process. I am looking forward to this course.

The Theory of Change, at its core, is a strategic framework designed to map out the causal pathways from activities to desired outcomes within a program or initiative. As an integral part of program planning and evaluation, it provides a structured approach for articulating the underlying assumptions, interventions, and anticipated changes that contribute to achieving specific goals
