An orientation to CIDA’s
approaches to programming
with its development partners
2
Many
inputs – but
what are
the results?
Why do
we talk
about
RBM?
3
Brief History of RBM





Genesis of the Logical Framework (LFA, Zopp) – 1968
RBM - formally introduced in USAID and DFID 1990
CIDA introduces RBM in1994
Focus on Results – Millennium Development Goals
Global focus on RBM at a string of meetings starting in 2002
(Monterrey, Rome, Marrakech etc.)
 Paris Declaration 2005 – strengthening aid effectiveness:
 Harmonizing practices
 Alignment
 Changing “ownership” of aid activities
 Mutual accountability
 Accra 2008 – reinforces the focus on development results
 2009 - new UNDP focus on “managing for development results”

Overall Objectives
• To provide partners with an opportunity to deepen
their own and CIDA’s understanding of respective
project proposals which it will be partnering
organizations on and
• To provide CIDA with an opportunity to orientate
partners on the approaches which CIDA takes to its
development programming with its partners.
• To work with partners to generate the documentation
required to process contribution agreements.
CIDA’s 2008 RBM Policy
Update
RBM policy update needed to make performance
management more (a) rigorous, (b) modern and (c)
pragmatic in order to:
• Standardize and provide better coherence in RBM terms,
definitions and methodology used in across the agency,
• Align RBM at CIDA with Canadian Government
approach, and
• Harmonize RBM at CIDA with the International Donor
Community
WHY
is Results Based
RBM@CIDA
Management a preferred
development planning,
implementation and reporting
approach?
It focuses on the impact of
interventions in the short, medium
and long term

“Results” in Day to Day Life
Inputs
Water
Salt, condiments
Cooking oil
Vegetables
Meat, fish
Firewood
Working time
Activities
Preparing the ingredients, cooking
the meal, serving the meal
Outputs
The sauce, the
main dish, the
meal
Outcome Result
Immediate (short-term),
Satisfied (after having
eaten this sauce, main dish
or meal)
Outcome Result
Medium- term effect,
improved physical
well-being (if I can
make sure I have a
balanced diet over
time)
Outcome Result
Long-term effect,
‘quality of life’ (if I can
ensure I have a
balanced diet for more
than 5 years)
10
Typically, governments, development
agencies and CSOs have focused their
attention on:
•inputs (what they spend),
•activities (what they do), and
•outputs (what they produce).
11
What is Missing?
The destination►When we simply focus on
inputs (spend), activities (do), and outputs
(goods and services produced) we are blind - we
don`t know our destination so we can’t see
when and where we have gone off course
12
Modern development management
requires planners, programmers,
financial officers and M&E specialists
to look beyond activities and outputs
to focus on:
actual results

What is a Result?
• A result is a describable or
measurable change in state that
is derived from a cause and
effect relationship.

Two Major Elements in
“Results”
CHANGE
Measurable
transformation
• In a group
• In an
organization
• In a society
• In a country
CAUSALITY
Cause and effect
relationship between
an action and the
results achieved – this
can be described as
the“If-then” logic.

Results-Based
Management
•
LOGIC MODEL
Defining realistic expected results, based on
appropriate analyses;
People are healthier in
region X.
Ultimate Outcome
Communities make better use of clean drinking water
in region X.
Intermediate
Outcomes
Communities have better access
to clean drinking water in region X.
Communities build their capacity
to maintain wells.
•
Clearly identifying program beneficiaries and
designing programs to meet their needs;
Monitoring progress towards results and
resources consumed, with the use of appropriate
indicators;
Outcomes
Resources trained
Wells built

Immediate
Communities build new wells

The Importance of Analysis
• The results chain should be informed by analysis
(gender, environment, social, political etc…)
• Ensure that gender equality results are identified at
outcome levels as required by policy
• Ensure that there is a logical connection through
activities, outputs and outcomes to support the
integration of cross-cutting themes (I.e., don`t just
stick them in the results)
21
Problem Tree Analysis
22
The Result Statement

A result statement outlines what a policy, program or investment is
expected to achieve. At CIDA, result statement = Outcome.

A result statement or Outcome describes the change stemming
from CIDA’s contribution to a development activity in cooperation with
others.
Different types of change (and each type has its own place in
the LM):
 Change in system, state
 Change in circumstances
 Change in behaviour or practices
 Change in functioning or performance
 Change in knowledge or awareness
 Change in skills or abilities
23
Language of Change
Results are about change ► for the better
• Change is signified by words such as:
Improved (health conditions)
Increased (income of local farmers)
Strengthened (capacity of local NGOs)
Reduced (vulnerability)
Enhanced (ability to apply RBM)
Promoted (engagement with stakeholders)

Using the Logic Chain
• Ultimate Outcome: Change in State for
target population
• Intermediate Outcomes: Change in practice
and/or behaviour of target population
• Immediate Outcomes: Change in
knowledge, awareness or access (etc)
• Outputs: Complete activities (good and
services)
• Activities: What CIDA/partners do to
mobilize inputs and create outputs.

Performance
Measurement Framework (PMF)
• Used to systemically plan the collection of relevant
data to assess and demonstrate progress made in
achieving expected results
• Ensures performance information is collected on a
regular basis
• Allows for real-time, evidence-based management
decision making
• Developed and monitored through consultation with
partners, other donors, local stakeholders and
sometimes beneficiaries

Performance Indicators
A performance indicator is a unit of measurement that specifies what is to be measured
along a scale or dimension but does not
indicate the direction or change.
Performance indicators are a qualitative or
quantitative means of measuring an output or
outcome, with the intention of gauging the
performance of a program or investment.
Performance indicators are neutral & do not
indicate directionality & do not embed a target.
30
Examples of Performance
Indicators
Quantitative (discrete
measures):
 number of,
 frequency of,
 ratio of,
 variance with,
 % of,
 etc.:
• Qualitative(experiential or
perception):










attitudes,
skills,
perceptions of,
quality of
level of (understanding),
beneficiary opinion,
extent of,
congruence with
presence of
etc.:
31
Gender Sensitive Indicators
• Measure the gender gaps and inequalities you
are seeking to address
• Points to changes is the status and roles of
women and men over time
• Requires the collection of data disaggregated by
sex, age
• Women and men should be actively involved in
the planning process and selection of indicators
that make sense
Performance Indicator
vs. Target vs. Result
Often there is confusion between results, performance indicators, and targets
 Results: are precise statements of what is to be accomplished:
Increased literacy among groups X and Y.
 Performance indicators: specify exactly what is to be
measured along a scale or dimension, but do not indicate the
direction of change
Literacy rate, level of knowledge
 Targets: specify a particular value for an indicator to be
accomplished by a specific date in the future
Total literacy rate to reach 85% among groups X and Y by
the year 2010

Results Based Budgeting
(RBB)
A results-driven budgeting process in which:
 Programme formulation and resources justification
involve a set of predefined objectives, expected
results, outputs, inputs and performance indicators
which constitute a ‘logical framework’;
 Expected results justify resource requirements, which
are derived from — and linked to - outputs to be
delivered, with a view to achieving such results; and
 Actual performance in achieving results is measured
by predefined performance indicators
37
Results Based Budgeting
“Results-based budgeting (RBB) is about
formulating budgets that are driven by a
number of desired results which are
articulated at the outset of the budgetary
process, and against which actual
performance is measured at the end of the
period.”

44
Risk Register
Purpose of the Risk Register:
A risk register lists all the identified risks, the
results of their analysis and a summary of
risk response strategies. The risk register
should be continuously updated and
reviewed over a regular reporting schedule
for the length of the project.
45
Elements of a Risk Register
• Risk definition
• Initial level of risk
• Risk levels through the project life
cycle
• Risk response strategies
• Risk owner
