This is the first of three linked courses. Change Pathways Mapping is a practical approach to eliciting and documenting the underlying Theory of Change of your project. This course is designed for established projects but can also help new projects at the planning and visioning stage. It is especially useful for projects which are multi-faceted and integrated, as many community-based permaculture and agro-ecological projects are.
This course is the first in a series of three courses:
- Discover: Change Pathways Mapping. During this course you will discover what a Change Pathways Map (CPM) is, learn the benefits of having one for your project, and see some examples. By the end of this course you will know whether you want to create your own CPM.
- How to Use Kumu. The second course shows you how to use a free digital tool (Kumu) that can be used to make a CPM. By the end of that course you will be ready to start making your own map.
- Do: Change Pathways Mapping. The third course is a step-by-step guide to creating a CPM for your project or organisation, using the Kumu tool. By the end of that course, you will have made your own CPM.
You will need to invest several hours to work through these three courses and to complete the activities to create your map. Previous participants report that the results are well worth the effort!
The process and the resulting map will be a foundation for developing or enhancing an impact or Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL) plan for your project or organisation, and for understanding your project’s intended impacts.
