LIVES Commodity Value Chain Development Inception Workshop
Addis Ababa, 21–24 January 2013
2. ME&L in Lives
• Project RBM&E and learning system
• Learning is facilitated by:
– M&E, and
– the diagnostic, action and impact research results
• Synthesis of results and lessons guides scaling up
and out within and outside target zones
• Baselines enable evaluation of progress towards
project targets
3. RBM&E in LIVES
• Project uses RBM&E
• Focus of M&E is on results, not on inputs
and activities
• Results are structure into:
– Outputs
– Immediate outcomes
– Intermediate outcomes
– Ultimate outcomes (impact)
4. LIVES RBM&E framework
• Resources, activities and results are organized in a logic
model (LM)
• LM is translated into performance framework (PF) and
performance measurement framework (PMF).
• PMF is a framework of result statements, indicators,
Baselines, targets, data sources, data collection
methods, frequency of data collection and
responsibilities.
• PMF is a guide for the RBM&E data collection.
5. LIVES Baselines
• Baseline data collection was conducted in
August 2012
• Unit of observation is PA
• Focus has been on:
– Establishing PA level baselines for the selected
commodity value chains
– Establishing aggregate baselines by zone and
across all the zones
6. Baseline Sampling
• Commodity combinations: 37
• Total number of PAs: 902
• PAs with commodities: 783
• Sample size: 25% of total PAs (= n)
• Proportion representing a commodity
combination: (frequency of
combination)/783 = k
• Sample size of the combination = k*n = l
7. Baseline sampling (2)
• Then to distribute l across zones:
– (Frequency of the combination in the zone/total
frequency of combination) = m
– Then sample size of the combination in a zone =
m*l
• Then randomly sample PAs for the
combination in a zone from among the PAs
that have the combination
• Total number of sampled PAs = 194
8. Baseline method
• Participatory methods used to collect PA
level quantitative data
– Focus group discussions
– Key informant interviews
– Records of OoA, PA admin, DAs, others
• Careful use of triangulation methods
