 overall objective
 specific objective
 Inputs/means
 activities
 results
 outputs
 target group
 final beneficiaries
Important concepts
 overall objective
Broader, long-term changes (directly or indirectly; intended or
unintended) in the environment of the project. The project contributes
to the overall objective, but can not achieve it alone.

“to contribute to poverty reduction among vulnerable rural populations
of Laos”

 specific objective
Specific objective addressing the core problem(s) (e.g. improvements in
area of intervention due to the improved capacity of the target group)

“improvement of the living conditions by addressing needs and rights to
access to water, sanitation, health education and first aid in 30 villages in
the Vientiane and Sayabouri Provinces”
Important concepts

 Input/Means: resources used

 Activities:the steps undertaken to transform inputs into
  outputs, e.g. organization of the training sessions;

 Outputs: Goods and services delivered by the project (e.g. a
  training session);

 Results: Benefits derived from the outputs of the project
  (e.g. improved capacity of those who attended the training)
Important Concepts
target group
It is very specific (50 unemployed young people
with disability). Directly benefiting from the
activities of the project. They are involved.
final beneficiaries
benefiting from the operation in the long term
(impact), they might not be directly involved
(parents of 50 unemployed young people with
disability)
The terminology varies among different aid
agencies, donors and implementers which can
create confusion. It is especially important to
keep in mind the difference between Outputs
  and Results which are too often mixed up.
To be included

Dissemination and communication

Monitoring and evaluation

Sustainability
Budget
Human Resources
Salaries (gross salaries including social security
charges and other related costs)
