What's in this LogFrame (Logical Framework) template

The complete LogFrame matrix structure (Goal, Purpose, Outputs, Activities across Narrative Summary, Indicators, Means of Verification, and Assumptions), with guidance notes for each cell and a worked example for reference.

Tips for using it

Start with the Goal row and work down. For each row, fill in the Narrative Summary first, then the Indicators, then the Means of Verification, and finally the Assumptions. Test the if/then logic vertically - if the activities happen and the assumptions hold, do the outputs follow?

When you need more than the template

The free template is enough to get a first draft on paper. Running the process properly with a team asks for more, and that is what we built the Theory of Change Toolkit for - a rapid primer, assessment tools for gathering stakeholder input, a slide deck, worksheets and discussion guides, facilitator notes, and a Miro board blueprint. Everything is editable, so you can fit it to your own branding and timings.

It's a paid toolkit, on our sister site toctoolkit.org. Reduced rates are available for small nonprofits, micro-organisations and students.
