Phase 4: Reporting and Dissemination – Example Deliverables
1. Comprehensive Impact Report
Example:
A 70-page detailed report assessing the clean water initiative in 10 rural villages.
Sections in the Report:
Executive Summary:
Highlighted results: "The clean water initiative reduced waterborne disease incidence by 45%,
improved school attendance by 20%, and saved 2 hours per household per day on water collection."
Introduction:
Background of the project, objectives, and the methodology used for evaluation.
Data Analysis:
Visuals:
Graph comparing pre- and post-intervention rates of diseases like diarrhea and cholera.
Table showing changes in time saved by households for water collection.
Community Feedback:
Quotes from beneficiaries:
“My children no longer fall sick, and I can now focus on farming instead of fetching water.” –
Beneficiary from Village X.
Recommendations:
Scale similar water systems to nearby villages to replicate success.
Provide community training on water system maintenance to ensure sustainability.
2. Visual Data Dashboards
Example:
An interactive web-based dashboard summarizing the data for stakeholders to explore results at their
convenience.
Key Features:
Maps:
A GIS heatmap of water access improvement across the surveyed villages.
Dynamic Charts:
Line charts showing the decline in disease rates month over month.
Bar charts comparing productivity gains (e.g., time saved fetching water).
Filters:
By region, demographics (e.g., age, gender), and water quality improvements.
Use Case:
A donor can view results specific to a funded region and analyze the program's effectiveness.
3. Recommendations Document
Example:
A standalone 10-page document for actionable recommendations tailored to the NGO's future strategy.
Recommendations Include:
Scaling Plan:
Expand water systems to 15 additional villages over the next two years.
Estimated cost per village and potential funding sources.
Risk Mitigation:
Train local technicians for system maintenance to prevent breakdowns.
Conduct yearly evaluations to monitor sustained impact.
4. Stakeholder Presentation
Example:
A 20-slide PowerPoint summarizing findings and recommendations for stakeholders.
Slide Examples:
Title Slide: Clean Water Initiative Impact Evaluation – Summary Report 2024.
Key Achievements Slide:
Visual: Infographic showing “45% reduction in waterborne diseases” and “2,500 lives positively
impacted.”
Data Summary Slide:
Graph: Pre- and post-intervention trends for school attendance.
Recommendations Slide:
Text: "Expand the initiative to underserved areas, allocate $150,000 for system upgrades, and
prioritize training programs."
Session Plan:
30-minute walkthrough of findings.
15-minute interactive Q&A session.
This detailed approach ensures that the dissemination phase is not only thorough but also engages
stakeholders effectively, aligning findings with actionable outcomes.
