Goals

It is not always easy to transform an idea into a development project. Carrying out a diagnosis before designing and implementing your project is essential: it determines the long-term success of your project. The objective of this training is therefore to provide you with the keys and tools to carry out a good field diagnosis in order to identify the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities related to your project and also:

  • Know the need to carry out a diagnosis and the importance of partnership;
  • Know how to transform a common idea into a project;
  • Know the tools for developing a diagnosis necessary for designing a project (analysis of the context, stakeholders, needs and demand, identifying risks);
  • Know how to establish the presentation of your project;
  • Be able to define general and specific objectives;

TRAINING CONTENT

The one-day training will cover theoretical elements – based on a participatory and interactive training principle – through practical cases, testimonials and exercises. The different phases of the diagnosis will be covered: preliminary assessment of the request, analysis of the context, analysis of the problem, development of the solution and design of the project, using different specific diagnostic tools and methodologies depending on the theme of the project.

Tools covered

  • Problem tree and solution tree
  • Logical framework
  • Partnership agreement

Practical case discussed

  • Construction of a classroom in Burkina Faso

Audience

The primary target audience is primarily small and medium-sized NGOs and international solidarity associations. Participants may have a minimum level of knowledge in methodology, but this is not mandatory.
