Outcome Mapping
Outcome mapping is a dynamic monitoring and evaluation framework used by IDRC. “It focuses on one specific type of result: Outcomes are defined as changes in the behavior, relationships, activities, or actions of the people, groups, and organizations with whom a program works directly”.
In keeping with this framework, the Intentional Design component is being applied to ICT4RD project under the headings:

  • Vision and Mission
  • Boundary partners
  • Outcome challenges
  • Progress markers
  • Strategy maps
  • Organizational practices

    Boundary Partners
    The context:
    Boundary partners are those individuals, groups, or organisations with whom the programme interacts directly and with whom the program can anticipate opportunities for influence. The power to influence development rests with them. The programme tries to facilitate the process by providing access to new resources, ideas or opportunities (through the boundary partners).

    The boundary partners are:

    1. Secondary Schools
    2. Hospitals (District and Primary health centers)
    3. Local Government authorities
    4. Ministry of Education and Vocational Training (MoEVT)
    5. Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MoHSW)
    6. Ministry of Communication, Science and Technology (MCST)
    7. Tanzania Communication Regulatory Authority (TCRA)

      Outcome Challenges
      An outcome challenge describes how the behaviour, relationships, activities, or actions of an individual, group, or institution will change if the programme is extremely successful.
