| ## Summary | ||
|
|
||
| Logic models and logical frameworks are akin to the blueprints we use for planning and evaluating programmes aimed at social change. Picture them as the game plan for an initiative or organisation, outlining the goals and the means to achieve them. |

| ## Motivation | ||
|
|
||
| LogFrame helps in clearly defining the objectives and structure of a project. It ensures that all team members and stakeholders have a common understanding of what the project aims to achieve. It facilitates systematic planning by breaking down the project into manageable components such as inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes, and goals. This breakdown helps in identifying the necessary resources and actions required at each stage. It also help identifying potential risks and assumptions at the outset, LogFrame allows for proactive risk management. It helps in anticipating challenges and planning for contingencies, thus reducing the likelihood of project delays or failures. |

What is LogFrame? Is it a tool? Can you provide a link?

| ## Theory of Change (ToC) | ||
|
|
||
| A theory of change helps you connect the dots between your actions and the positive change you want to see in the world. It's a powerful tool for planning and evaluating the effectiveness of your efforts, whether you're working on social causes, personal goals, or any other project. It encourages you to think critically about the steps needed to make a real impact. |

| - **Process**: Involves deep critical reflection, logical thinking, and extensive data. It starts by identifying the goal and works backward, asking "if we do X, then Y will happen because…". | ||
| - **Usage**: Ideal for complex projects across multiple sectors, requiring rigorous planning and a thorough understanding of the intervention's impact. | ||

| ## Logical Framework (LogFrame) | ||
|
|
||
| A Logical Framework is like zooming in on the specific pathway that your program deals with and creating a neat, orderly structure for it. This makes it easier for you and the donor to monitor program implementation. |

This portmanteau also needs to be introduced in the logical-frameworks-overview.md file where it is used as well. See earlier confused comment :)
| - **Process**: Developed after project initiation, it follows a forward approach from inputs to goals, asking "if we plan to do A, will B happen?". | ||
| - **Usage**: Suitable for small to medium-sized projects, providing a clear and concise overview of project components. | ||

| - They improve project design and outcomes. | ||
| - Identify project components and demonstrate their relationships. | ||
| - Represented visually for easier understanding. | ||
| - Outcome-focused, based on logical assumptions. | ||
| - Require regular updates to reflect changes. | ||

It is worth not nesting the headings under the Logical Framework section here, since these sections are describing the Similarities and Differences between ToC and LogFrame, and hence don't explicitly belong to either section
