The framework is continuously being developed and will be updated on an ongoing basis. You can find the latest draft version of key resources below.
If you use any of the resources to inform your evaluation, we would love to hear from you. For any questions, comments, or feedback, please reach out to Jonathan Schulte, Evaluation Manager in the Eden Centre (j.t.schulte@lse.ac.uk).

Pro-Forma Planner & Research Log
The “Pro-Forma Planner and Research Log” is a simple evaluation planning tool. Through a series of questions and prompts it helps users think through evaluation design, sharing of outputs at different levels, and reflecting on the utility of the evaluation. The planner also acts as a research log to capture this evaluation planning.

Pathway Guide
The Pathway and Resource Box contains more concrete examples of tools and models to support evaluation practice, placing the steps outlined in the Pro-Forma Planner in a cyclical model, and outlining how these steps could be followed in practice.

Resource Box
The Resource Box contains a range of tools, examples and models that give practical guidance on how to design evaluations – for example, how to write a good survey, how to design a theory of change, or how to ensure that evaluation outputs are usable.
The Resource Box contains a list of links & resources to address support evaluation design (as referenced in the Pathway Guide).
