The goals of the theory of change process is for organizations to develop a framework on how it can achieve its long term outcomes and measure its success.

The goals of the Theory of Change process are to help an organisation develop a shared "big picture" view of their intended impact and how their activities will lead to it; and to develop a clear, pragmatic level of detail in this for operationalisation and measurement.

The main goals of TOC are to help focus on what preconditions are needed to achieve long-term goal(s)/outcomes and explain how that may be achieved (the pathways).

The goal of the theory of change is to explain briefly how project's interventions lead to intermediate and long-term results.

My organisation may fall into the pitfall of not measuring the outcomes to ascertain the impcat of the project. To mitigate, set of indicators must be clearly put in place as measuring tool.

The Theory of Change provides the big picture of the intended change. It defines the long-term goal of a project and the broad strategic areas of intervention, and then maps the building blocks or preconditions, that need to be in place for the long-term change to occur. The Theory of Change also identifies the assumptions that need to hold true for the project to succeed, and the evidence that is available to support them.

The goal of the ToC is to design a strategy to achieve the longer term outcome/impact; supported y the realistic and achievable assumed strategies that could be measured, specific and timebound

A Theory of Change allows a team and relevant stakeholders of the project articulate the long-term goal of the project and what outputs and outcomes are required to achieve envisioned success. In defining the Theory of Chance, it's also a chance for stakeholders to raise questions about the strategic plan, to challenge the logic of the connections and the assumptions, and for the team to ensure a shared understanding about what the project is trying to accomplish.

Setting and linking the interventions wit the immediate intermediate outcomes which will lead to the impact.

It is the clearest justification.

The goal of Theory of Change Process is to help an organization to articulate the assumptions that like behined its reasoning and to address the question of why the organization thinks its activities will lead to the outcomes intended. Moreover, it helps the organization wheather its plans are supported by evidence.

GOALS OF A THEORY OF CHANGE**

THE FOLLOWING ARE THE GOALS FOR CREATING AND OR DEVELOPING A THEORY OF CHANGE IN ORGANIZATIONS

1. Theory of change helps the organization in finding solutions to often challenging and complex problems
2. it helps in setting the stage to long range results
3. it explains the process that will be followed to bring about the needed change
4. it specifies the ways in which all of the required early and intermediate outcomes related to achieving the desired long-term change will be brought about and documented as they occur.

Theory of change is a tool which, if properly used, can help an organization clearly define and articulate its intervention or mission, as well as build on individual projects to achieve a much broader goal or vision. It helps us to identify potential pitfalls in our strategy as well as provide the basis for resource allocation or mobilization.

I admit that I also fall into the same category, and this has affected our ability to effectively raise funding for subsequent projects.

The goal of the Theory of Change (ToC) is to help stakeholders to define the change they wan to achieve. The ToC is a tool for stakeholders to reach a commonly understood long-term goal. TOC helps to predict exactly who or what is going to change, why, over what period of time, and by how much, and with which resources.

I totally agree, it describes of the component of the ToC: a big picture about the impact that we want to achieved, the preconditions needed and how we're going to measure them. Thanks!.

It is to clarify how an organization’s activities link to outcomes.

Theory of change is a powerful design because it has great impact on how we operate as professionals and human beings
