A logical framework is an essential M&E tool used to plan and organize activities in a project (usually development projects). It is a highly effective strategic management tool to monitor, evaluate and control project activities. Following are the components of an LFA:
Project Description - A brief description stating what the project is about.
Project Goal - What will be the broad impact of the project?
Outcome(s) - What is the immediate outcome of the project?
Outputs - The deliverables of the project
Activities - List of activities that need to be carried out along with their sequencing.
Verifiable Indicators - Indicators that relate to each of the above mentioned components.
Means of verification - How each one of the indicators will be verified? Must mention a source.
Assumptions - State the assumptions relating to the Goal, Outcome, Outputs and all the Activities of the Project.
