Outcome Mapping - 5 days Training and Workshop in Switzerland

Building learning and reflection into Project Cycle Management.
Outcome Mapping (OM) is an innovative project cycle management approach that focuses on behaviour changes as outcomes of development interventions. It is increasingly used in development cooperation as it concentrates on independent actions of project partners right from the beginning of a project and “handing over problems” at the end of a project can thus be avoided. Furthermore, OM emphasises on continuous learning from experiences made along the implementation pathway. If you want to know what all this means in practice, then this well-designed 5-day workshop is exactly for you! It offers the opportunity to get to know and apply OM as a new instrument in PCM in a practical, hands-on way.
