About the Training

For non-profits pursuing advocacy work, even on the narrowest and most local of issues, defining and measuring success is not for the faint of heart. Advocacy and policy programmes can be complex to implement, and more so complex to document results if the M&E design is not thought very well from the beginning. The typical approach to a successful measurement strategy in direct service—developing a (linear) theory of change and measuring in increasingly rigorous ways until you can prove your model’s effectiveness—simply doesn’t work in most advocacy contexts. Neither does waiting to measure until the “end outcome” is achieved, since that could be decades away. The overall objective of this training is to equip you with the necessary skills and knowledge to make you better practitioners in your countries. This training has been designed to be practical with exercises to provide skills, encourage participation and exchange information. We will walk with you on how to design an effective Theory of Change for advocacy programmes. We will also help you how to link your Theory of Change to your Advocacy Results Framework. By the end of the training, participants will:

1. Have the necessary skills and knowledge on how to design an advocacy Theory of Change
2. Have an understanding on the factors to consider when designing and implementing an advocacy Theory of Change
3. Have explored ways to facilitate and promote TOC approaches within their own organisation and advocacy programmes.
   Have improved skills on how to use a TOC in monitoring and evaluating advocacy interventions based on a set of advocacy tools designed and tested by Evidence Frontiers
4. Understand common mistakes made by development organizations when designing an advocacy Theory of Change

Course Format

This will be a 3 day face to face course which will take place at Fairview Hotel in Nairobi, Kenya and a 90 minute one-to-one coaching session after the course (via Skype) with the course trainers, focusing specifically on your needs. This individual, tailored coaching will support the individual to apply the learning from the course to their work, and offer the opportunity to work through current challenges, difficulties and opportunities with a highly experienced practitioner.
